Recently I got a sealed box of 2019 Donruss Racing Cards—24 packs, 8 cards per pack. Join me as I go through the entire case, pack-by-pack, to see what awaited me. (Click any picture to enlarge)
PACK 21 OF 24: Harvick, Carl’s Slick, and Fabric
OVERVIEW: A lot of repeats in this one, most-likely a consequence of getting so deep into the box. Its hard to hold that against it, though, since most people would be unlikely to buy an entire box of cards and open them all themselves. Also, since it hasn’t been mentioned before, check out the “wavy lines” design that appears on most of the regular modern cards.
SPECIAL SPECIAL: One of the only downsides to the OPTIC cards is that they look unusually shiny and slick, especially when they’re having their picture taken. Well, that and the whole “the driver looks like a specter” thing.
IN FOCUS: ANOTHER INSERT! This one appears to be one of the J’s from Kevin Harvick’s Jimmy John’s fire suits. A nice-looking piece if ever there was one.
SPOTLIGHT: Ryan Truex goes to show the difficulty of putting positive copy on the backs of some of these cards (which I forgot to turn 90 degrees to the left, sorry).
SCORE: 9 pit stops out of 10
