Chase Elliott Crushes Hendrick Motorsports Teammate Kyle Larson in Yet Another Category After Dominant NASCAR Season

For any NASCAR memorabilia collector, it is a dream to have all possible diecasts of their favorite drivers’ cars. The sports official diecast builder, Lionel Racing, recently put out a top 10 list. In it are listed the top 10 most sought-after diecast models this year. It doesn’t take long to realize that Chase Elliott was a clear favorite of the collectors this year.

As per a tweet shared by NASCAR YouTuber, Eric Estepp, four out of the ten spots are taken by Chase Elliott models. Meanwhile, the top spot was taken by Ross Chastain’s Martinsville car, most probably, because of his incredible wall-riding move at the Martinsville Speedway.

Aside from Elliott, his teammate at Hendrick Motorsports Kyle Larson also featured in the list at six. However, this pales in comparison to the slots taken up by the kid from Dawsonville.

Sharing the tweet, Eric Estepp asked the fans, “Any surprises on this list?”  Fans agreed that four appearances was indeed a lot. A few of them were also surprised that Richard Petty made it to the top 10. Some were bemused that even decades after retiring, so many people were actively buying Petty’s diecasts.
