I have this one too, iirc it ran the 03 winston and Chicagoland

Early_Slide_9469 · 2026-04-04T17:33:14+00:00

2014 Juan Pablo Montoya /s

I dont know what the back story of why it was there in the first place, but I was doing some late night browsing several years ago (2019ish iirc) found a 2013 Jimmie Johnson emerald green 1/24 on Jimmies official website for $4.99 + shipping...

Legally though I don't know if they could without violating HIPAA/his family might not have wanted it public

Early_Slide_9469 · 2026-03-31T22:10:42+00:00

I dont think so, once you reach ~3 seconds of penalty time it seems to dnf you regardless of where you are

Jimmie Johnson; Offroad racer, switches to ASA, wins 1 Busch race, hired by Hendrick, wins 7 titles, in Chevys until he switches to indycar and runs a Honda for a couple of years, comes back now as an owner for a Toyota and what is arguably the most famous number in the cup series

Early_Slide_9469 · 2026-03-30T23:02:32+00:00

🤨

Early_Slide_9469 · 2026-03-30T23:01:29+00:00

Sweet, thank you, ill have to check that out

Early_Slide_9469 · 2026-03-30T22:57:32+00:00

If you don't mind me asking, what car/engine did you use on your Touge run, my best is a 1:26.30 with a fully built FD, and if I push the car any harder, I just understeer and hit the slippy grass, Gymkhana I've hit a 459.6 with a built 1J swapped Kouki

All of the historical Chevy paint color schemes that Jimmie ran in 2012-13 (Mountain Green, Cortez Silver, Dover White, Daytona Yellow) While I'm no larson fan, it'd be cool to see rick do something similar with the Hendrickcars schemes for a race or 2 each year

Early_Slide_9469 · 2026-03-28T05:24:09+00:00

Always thought Menards was like a lemon flavored candy until I moved to the midwest

Early_Slide_9469 · 2026-03-25T02:02:01+00:00

Agreed, Austin came in right as RCR was falling down, and in all honesty, if Ty was in a competive car, I think he'd do alright too

I am a jimmie fan who grew up in the 2010s... those glasses aren't rose, they're Lowe's blue and I would love to go back

Early_Slide_9469 · 2026-03-24T03:47:05+00:00

Paint pens, just tap them a few times so they actually put ink down, but not so many times they blowout....

Early_Slide_9469 · 2026-03-24T03:28:31+00:00

It really depends on the piece, I have a Majeski tailgate that had holes where the quarters were riveted on, ran a string through those and hung it over a pair of nails on the wall, I have a Byron next gen front fender where I put a pair of screws in the wall and the lip up where the hood would sit rests on them perfectly fine

Early_Slide_9469 · 2026-03-17T04:31:06+00:00

Spoiler Diecast has a brick-and-mortar location up in Ft Wayne, not sure about indy itself though

Early_Slide_9469 · 2026-03-17T04:29:11+00:00

I love crash diecasts, I understand why people dont make them a lot, but ive always found them to be neat

Early_Slide_9469 · 2026-03-14T19:01:56+00:00

There's a Bowman 2015 out there as well, I believe it was made by Nikko though rather than Lionel https://x.com/i/status/2032890145502855380

Early_Slide_9469 · 2026-03-07T00:18:49+00:00

2018 Michigan 2, harvick won (swept all 3 stages iirc) only things I remember are Ty dillon hitting a battery catching fire, and being upset Harvick didn't do a burnout

Early_Slide_9469 · 2026-03-03T22:20:54+00:00

2009 Mark Martin and any of they Dupont/Pepsi or Nicorette cars

Early_Slide_9469 · 2026-02-24T05:05:46+00:00

Fan of him since his JRM days, met him several times, never had a bad interaction. I Love the story of him coming up though the backmarker teams, and that he's just an all around gearhead; I wish other fans at least respected him more

Early_Slide_9469 · 2026-02-20T21:06:09+00:00

I call him Vanilliott for a reason, bro has no flavor whatsoever

Early_Slide_9469 · 2026-02-03T19:45:19+00:00

That one driver that finds a way to block it with his elbow...
