One of the most memorable driver, sponsor, and paint scheme pairings in NASCAR® history will be making a triumphant return to the track later this season.
After an incredible stretch of success in the NASCAR Cup Series® with a No. 8 Chevrolet sponsored by Budweiser, Dale Earnhardt Jr. will once again wheel that iconic livery on his Late Model Stock Car at Florence Motor Speedway.
Dale Jr. started his NASCAR Hall of Fame® career in the NASCAR Cup Series® behind the wheel of the iconic red No. 8 in 1999. Through his two-win rookie season in 2000 and for the next seven seasons, Dale Jr. was one of the biggest stars in the sport and collected a total of 17 wins with a Bud-backed Chevrolet.
From 2008 to now, Dale Jr.’s fans have not seen their favorite driver pursue Victory Lane in a Budweiser-backed car. That will all change in the 32nd Annual South Carolina 400 at Florence in Timmonsville, South Carolina. In continuation of his post-NASCAR Cup Series® career that has seen him take on various Late Model events in the Southeast in recent seasons, Dale Jr. will battle with the top short trackers in the country in the event that takes place on Saturday, November 23 with his Budweiser No. 8 ride.
Now, Lionel Racing is ready to celebrate with Dale Jr.’s legions of fans by offering the official die-cast replica of the No. 8 Budweiser Late Model. Produced on Lionel’s updated Late Model tooling, this die-cast will be an accurate replica in 1:24 scale of the newer generation Late Model Stock Car. Each 1:24 die-cast features an opening hood, authentic body contour, hand-applied decals, and more. Collectors of autographed racing memorabilia can also choose a 1:24 die-cast that is signed by Dale Jr. on the windshield. To further enhance collectability of this incredible die-cast, numerous Lionel Racing Special Finish die-cast are available, including radiant Color Chrome, silky Liquid Color, glittery Flashcoat Color, and metallic Raw finish editions. A smaller, 1:64-scale version, which will come on a base, is also available for order. Each die-cast will deliver in custom Dale Jr. and Budweiser-themed packaging.
