The Scalextric model
NASCAR has been a very popular theme in the Scalextric range for over 10 years and has built up an excellent reputation for providing high quality build cars, the very best level of decoration, robustness and exciting performance.
The simple side-winder chassis design, rugged body exterior and detailed interior make this car a joy to race.
Scalextric will release two liveries of Dale’s 2008 team car. The National Guard livery (C2958) shown above and the AMP sponsored car (C2895)
History

Dale Earnhardt Jr. is both blessed and burdened with one of the most legendary names in stock car racing history. As the son of the late NASCAR icon Dale Earnhardt, Dale Jr. has inherited his father's instincts and hard-charging driving style.
Sometimes known as "Little E," Earnhardt Jr., Dale very quickly became a NASCAR top runner from 1998 for the next ten years where he continues to battle for the NASCAR championship.
