DALE EARNHARDT JR 2014 BRISTOL RACED VERSION *CHECKERS OR WRECKERS* 1/24 ELITE SERIES



Limited edition of 585 made. The bent fenders, hot tempers, and short track beating and banging that the high banks at Bristol Motor Speedway have made the track a fan-favorite stop on the NASCAR schedule for decades. It is also a place where NASCAR Hall of FameTM inductee Dale Earnhardt Jr. showed one of the ultimate signs of toughness in the face of in-race adversity. Early on in the 2014 Night Race at Bristol, Earnhardt was cruising and keeping himself near the front of the field when disaster struck. The race leaders made contact and a spun car bounced off the inside wall and right into Earnhardts path. His No. 88 Diet Mountain Dew Chevrolet was struck and suffered extreme damage. Even though their chances of victory ended with the collision, Earnhardt and his Hendrick Motorsports crew refused to give up on gaining additional positions. Damaged body panels were removed, tape was applied to hold other parts of the car together, and even the No. 88 on the cars driver side had to be recreated using neon orange tape to meet NASCAR regulations. With all the damage repaired as best as possible, Earnhardt returned to the race for several more laps after the incident and picked up additional points due to the teams diligence to return to the track. Lionel Racing is now excited to release the third die-cast in its Checkers or Wreckers line the 2014 Dale Earnhardt Jr. Diet Mountain Dew Raced die-cast. Available in both a 1:24-scale ARC and ELITE model, each will feature replica damage, tape, and more that reflects how Earnhardts car looked after the race. A smaller, hard-top, 1:64-scale version is also on offer. Each die-cast will also come in special Checkers or Wreckers packaging. This Raced Version die-cast will be produced as part of a numbered, limited edition, so place your order now!
