2020 Donruss Panini Nascar Cards Unboxing PACK 13



Continuing a tradition of limited esteem, Spade Racing bought, unboxed, and unpacked a sealed box of 2020 Donruss (Panini) Nascar trading cards.  Join us as we go through each eight-card pack to find the good, the bad, and the downright weird.

PACK 13—Race Kings, Throwback Things and Blurry Zings
Two—count ‘em—two Race Kings in this pack.  This is also as good a time as any to mention that the main parallel set in this series (like the Matt DiBenedetto and Denny Hamlin cards at the bottom) are 1987 Donruss baseball throwbacks.  Donruss does this every year and its a nice touch, though I don’t understand if the Bobby Labonte card above is a parallel parallel or a printing error.

FIRST THING’S FIRST: Dale Jr.’s “distressed”-style hat looks positively grungy in the portrait-style presentation here, not to mention that his firesuit looks like it has been crumpled up in a ball somewhere for months.

SECOND LOOK: Austin Cindric’s card must’ve saved them some money on ink considering how incredibly white his firesuit is.

TO THE BACK: My apologies for not getting a good picture of the back of this Rusty Wallace card.  He mentions how he likes to talk to fans, although I’m guessing he’s not considering those who constantly ask him where his water bottle is.


FINAL SCORE: 5 splitters out of 10
