KYLE LARSON 2021 DARLINGTON RACED VERSION *CHECKERS OR WRECKERS* 1/24 ELITE SERIES

KYLE LARSON 2021 DARLINGTON RACED VERSION *CHECKERS OR WRECKERS* 1/24 ELITE SERIES

Limited edition of 896 made. In the first race of the 2021 NASCAR Cup Series™ Playoffs, Kyle Larson put it all on the line – or, more accurately, the wall. On the final lap of the Cook Out Southern 500 at Darlington Raceway, second-place Larson decided to “video game it” in a last-ditch attempt to pass race leader Denny Hamlin and cement a spot in the next round of The Playoffs. As he gained speed, Larson purposely bounced his No. 5 HendrickCars.com Chevrolet off the wall, nearly getting by Hamlin for the victory. In the end, Larson finished in second place. “I thought if I rode the wall, I could squeeze to his outside and who knows what would have happened after that down the front stretch,” Larson said. “I actually got to his bumper a little too early and he kind of protected the wall. It was wild and I hope the fans enjoyed the desperation. Just came one spot short.” Now, Lionel Racing is excited to release the next edition in the “Checkers or Wreckers” line – the 2021 No. 5 HendrickCars.com Darlington Raced die-cast. Available in both a 1:24-scale ARC and ELITE model, each will feature replica damage that reflects how Larson’s car looked after the race. Each 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 order yours now.

This is a Lionel Elite Series diecast collectible car.
