Nascar’s unique in that there’s a pretty cool way to get a (relatively) free souvenir from virtually every team—the hero card. For the uninitiated, Hero Cards are large, well, cards printed on, well, card stock, containing driver, car, and team information. Big and glossy, they work great for autographs, or just to collect.
Now normally I can get a good selection of Hero Cards from team race shops or at the track in the garage. But with the whole pandemic going on, that’s a no-go. So instead I’m mailing out a slew of Self-Addressed-Stamped-Envelopes (SASE’s) to every major and minor race team in the three national touring series.
Who’ll be the first to respond? Who’ll have the best Hero Cards? Who’ll send the most? Will anyone still have outdated 2020 info? And will anyone slip in a few goodies or even an autograph? SEE BELOW!
So here’s what I’ve gotten so far over the past month, through April 5th (Day after Easter). Some good stuff pictured in order of when they arrived. Bonus points to those who included autographs!
 |
The Wood Bros. on the pole! Two nice cards and some cool autographs from the Wood family
|
 |
| A nice haul from GMS with plenty of autographs--AND a championship decal! |
 |
| Two cards from the StarCom crew, including a leeeeetle autograph |
 |
Its understandable to get some out of date cards considering I requested them so early. Love the foil
on the 34 FRM card! |
 |
| JDM w/ Gary Keller means lots of cards and autographs! |
 |
| Nice quartet from JR Motorsports, and a Michael Annett autograph |
 |
| Again, I'm sure I'd get more from KBM if I mailed in my request later |
 |
| A PERSONALIZED autograph from Jordan Anderson! and I got some little decals too! (not pictured) |
 |
| A nice standardized (and autographed) five-pack from ThorSport |
 |
| A smattering of cards from Rick Ware and Spire (from the same place) |
