Panini comes out every year with a “super premium” series of Nascar cards, chock full of memorabilia pieces, autographs, and rookie cards. This year its the Chronicles Series. Join me as we unbox, unwrap, and unpack six “Blaster Boxes” worth of cards!
PACK 4—A Firesuit, Green Loot, and Words Made Moot
FIRST THING’S FIRST: Jackpot! A Bubba Wallace firesuit swatch highlights this pack, as does a green variant “Pedal to the Metal” Ryan Blaney card. We also get Dale Jr. in his lime green look, which combined with two red-themed cards, gives this set a Christmas-y feel.
TO THE BACK: I don’t really know what’s worse—a backmarker team called “Premium” or a journeymen being said to be on the “Ascension”.
WHAT WERE THEY THINKING: “Make sure the reflection in my shades is just right.”
FINAL SCORE: 8 uniform patches out of 10
