NascardRadio

This week on NasCardRadio (Episode 257), Val and Logan break down the chaos surrounding Panini Turn 4 Racing — the stunning cards, the steep prices, and whether the product’s rocky release hurt its future. 💥

From $300 presales to distributors dropping prices overnight, the guys ask the big question: Did early pricing doom Turn 4 before it even got started?

They also dig into collector frustration vs. breaker hype, eBay resale values, and whether Panini’s NASCAR division missed key opportunities to build momentum — like promoting more at the track or partnering with broadcaster talent.

Then in King’s Court, it’s an all-KaVroom edition! 🏆

This week on NasCardRadio, Val and Logan go deep on one of the hobby’s hottest (and scariest) topics — fake 1992 Traks Dale Earnhardt and Richard Petty autographs showing up online. 🚨

They break down how to spot red flags in listings and what to watch for in raw sales. Whether you’re chasing your first Traks Petty \ Earnhardt or adding to your Petty \ Earnhardt PC, this is must-listen advice for NASCARD collectors.

Then it’s time for the fan-favorite segment — 🃏 Kings Court!
