NASCAR Heavy October 28, 2008 If you collect NASCAR cards or diecast, this book may be useful. If you collect diecast sports racing and Formula 1 cars, like I do, don't buy this book. There are only a few F1 diecast and no sports racing cars in here. Out of my collection of about 100 racing cars, I found less than 10 in this book. The selection of manufacturers is very slim and mostly American. Even within manufacturers, the lists are incomplete.
The print is very small, I had to use a magnifying glass to read most of it. This makes browsing somewhat awkward.
Overall, this book will not be of much use to me.
Not what I was expecting August 6, 2008 First of all, I was expecting the one with both Dale Sr. and Dale Jr. on the cover, not just Jr. Big disappointment. And second, I don't recall racing collectibles just being limited to die cast and cards. It was very misleading because the title states "Beckett Racing Collectibles Price Guide 2008 (Beckett Racing Collectibles and Die-Cast Price Guide)", not just Beckett Card and Car Book.
Beckett Racing Guide Overload July 26, 2008 Great information! Should split cards from die-casts and make 2 books. Print is extremely small. Too much info for 1 book.
Didn't receive the one pictured May 14, 2008 Received the issue with only Dale Jr. on the cover in his new team's colors. Pleased with it, very detailed and inclusive. H ave only found one piece I have not listed. Easy to follow. Invest in a magnifying glass if you are older than 21. Diecast listing by driver in the last section is very helpful. Who needs monthly updates in this hobby. Very much worth the price, but I really wanted the one with Dale Earnhardt on the cover.
