PETTY FAMILY 75 YEARS OF RACING *DIAMOND* 1/24 ELITE DIECAST
Limited edition of 135 made. For 75 years, the Petty family has been synonymous with NASCAR royalty. Four generations of Petty family members have competed in NASCAR events from behind the steering wheel, while others have made an impact on the sport in the garage area, at the race shops, and at home to support the familys motorsports legacy. From Lee Pettys first NASCAR start in 1949, through The King Richard Pettys incredible 200 wins and seven NASCAR Cup Series championships, to the successes of Kyle Petty and his son Adam, the Petty family has an unmatched history on the track. Maurice Petty, a longtime Petty Enterprises crew chief and engine builder, joined his father Lee and older brother Richard as NASCAR Hall of Fame members in 2014. Maurices sons, Mark and Ritchie, also made names for themselves in the NASCAR Cup Series and the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series in the 1990s and 2000s. While the Petty family has a legendary history at the track, the mothers, wives, sisters, and daughters of the Petty family were the true heroes behind the scenes. Now, Lionel Racing the Official Die-cast of NASCAR, is excited to honor the 75-year racing legacy of the Petty family with a commemorative fantasy die-cast.
