Join us (well, me) as we/I go through a box of super-exclusive 2021 Panini Chronicles Nascar Cards, pack-by-pack, week-by-week.
Pack 3—Taylor Gray, a new Bubba day, and Suarez at play
FIRST LOOK: A nice autograph from Taylor Gray here. While its cool to get a young driver’s autograph on what’s ostensibly his rookie card, shouldn’t he have used a gray marker? Hope you’re taking color-coordinated notes Jeff Green, Ray Black Jr., and Rex White.
TO THE BACK: Yeah, these cards were definitely made right around the Daytona 500. If they hadn’t been they’d have been able to capture Bubba’s amazingly mediocre 2021 season (
Irony—this was written before his runner up finish in the 400!).
SAY WHAT: “I’m El Bombastico, the racing monster, who must eat other drivers’ careers to survive!”
RATING: 7 stage points out of 10
