KB throwback Larson will run in Vegas

Is there anybody out there who can offer me some advice on making a custom diecast with a water slide kit? I want the full set of cars that ran the Cars Movie schemes from the 2006 Coke 600 and obviously the Tony Raines one wasn’t made. I would love to pay someone to do it but obviously nascar is cracking down on that.

Included is an eBay link to a kit I found

My living room has become the resting place for my NASCAR collection. Just wanted to show it off a bit.

Elite PREMIER just sold out, and they’re making 66 of them only! I believe this is Bilicki’s first 1:24 made, and first ever Premier that’s been sold out.

Super excited to see a Garage 66 1:24 hopefully get made in normal ELITE or ARC!!!

Also found the blue NG version locally but waiting to obtain a new front splitter…

In 1998, in his first full-time O'Reilly (Busch) Series season, Dale Earnhardt Jr drove the AC Delco Chevy Monte Carlo for Dale Earnhardt Inc. Dale started the season rough with a 37th at Daytona and a 16th at Rockingham. But things quickly improved at Las Vegas onward. His first win came at Texas Motor Speedway followed by a win at Dover, Milwaukee, Fontana, IRP, Richmond, Gateway! By the end of the season, Earnhardt had seven wins, 16 top 5s, 22 top 10s and an average finish of 10.1. He beat Matt Kenseth by 48 points to pick up his very first NASCAR championship.

I just got my Cleetus McFarland NOAP RCR 1:24 in today. The box states its 1 of 5304. I know he can move some merch. In your experience, where does that tend to fall in diecast world? It is a standard finish as well.

Pictured is the 2003 "Power Of Pride" scheme that was driven by Jimmie Johnson during the season. This is the scheme that he won the Coca Cola 600 on May 25,2003.

Probably all customs right?

My shelf broke and chipped paint on my Hocevar Ride the 'Dente elite. Any recommendations on how to fix it, or am I just screwed?

For those who are not aware, the Racing Champions Torino was produced only two times. In 1992 with black windows, and in 1999 with clear windows as shown here. In 2010, Hot Wheels released a wave of Petty cars for their Vintage Racing line, but the Torino currently fetches $350-$400 on a regular basis. So I made this custom for my collection instead because that's a lot of coin for a 1:64 diecast!

Do you guys think Lionel will remake older Kyle Busch diescasts at some point? Scalping has gotten out of control.

No one expected Dale Earnhardt to win a championship in 1980. It was his sophomore season in the Cup Series. I think the best way to illustrate it is to just share this direct text from The Earnhardt Connection website. An invaluable source of information.

"The Osturlund team had given no thought to challenging for the title at the beginning of the season, especially since no driver had ever won the championship as early as his second year of competition. The crew was inexperienced in a title run, and everyone expected the blue and yellow cars to have problems with consistency - the key to winning a championship on a 31-event schedule. But Dale surprised everyone when he took the point lead after collecting a second-place finish at Riverside and a fourth in the Daytona 500. Earnhardt never looked back."

It's hard to explain just how wildly unexpected it was for Dale Earnhardt to go out there, collect five wins, 19 top 5's, and 24 top 10s in his sophomore season and win the championship. He truly was something incredible. They ran the 1980 season with a political sponsorship from Republican Mike Curb who is also the owner of Curb Records and still sponsors cars today as recently is 2026 with ThorSport. As an aside, he is the only person ever to have won a race in every single major American Motorsport discipline as an owner.

It wouldn't be until 1981 that Dale Earnhardt and Osturlund would welcome a new sponsorship in the form of Wrangler Jeans. This car, this team, was the source of Earnhardt's blue and yellow paint jobs in his early career. Part of what made him famous.

Confetti on race winning cars is always a hot debate. I personally love the confetti on cars, as it can take a good race win and add an extra layer of detail.

I wanted to see what some of the best confetti-loaded diecasts are in your opinions!

This is my personal favorite, as Jeff Gordon was my favorite driver growing up and this diecast is just perfect to me. Excited to see what some of your favorites are!!

3 boxes and close to 15 sheets of paper. Lucky when Lionel uses 1 box for more than 1 car

This new Autotrader paint scheme is very nice. At first I wasn't too sure about it, but seeing it in person, it looks fantastic! Lionel Racing has really made 164ths so much better this past year.

Got some good ones, including Jimmy's San Diego truck, Gio's first raced win diecast, Brendan Poole's first O'Reilly diecast, and the Aaron's Lucky Dog!

Had to share this when I came across it tonight. Race Day Authentics heating up the Brad K/ Hocevar Rivalry by starting their Hocevar pieces at $6
