Check out this 3rd gen diecast-best ever IMO

A 1987 IROC driven by the late, great Dale Earnhardt in the 1987 IROC series. Only 4600 of these beauties were made this year and I was lucky to get 3 of them. Awesome detail to this 1:24 scale car. Something like this was never offered before this year. I am so happy to add this to my collection.

Any '92 Camaro die casts out there? It was the 25th anniversary, you'd think there would be one!

Thats a cool colectable I just picked up the brushed metal Dale Earnhardt Jr. prime sirloin car the other day. I also have a collection of camaros with over 90 cars in it. I will start a thread showing them as soon as I get a chance.

Yeah, it's called a 1992 RS, but JL really dropped the ball on accuracy. It's basically a white 1982 Z28 (has the '82 GFX and hood) with a RS logo and Crager SS rims. The card is nice though.

I've got that one! It's pretty crappy... and I think some guy on e-bay sells them as key chains for like twice the original cost. But you're right, the card is nice.
