When Die-Cast Makes a Difference: Last year, many collectors and partners joined Lionel NASCAR Collectables in helping support The Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation and their commitment to wounded military heroes. Because of collectors and partners, Lionel NASCAR Collectables was able to raise $200,000 for the construction of a new "smart" home for United States Marine Corporal Todd Nicely. Todd lost both his arms and his legs when he stepped on a mine in Afghanistan. More info and a video at the LNC Pit Box.

Top 10 diecast of 2011: Jeff Gordon's #24 AARP/Drive to End Hunger Chevy and Kevin Harvick's #29 Budweiser Chevy were the best-selling 1:24 scale die-cast cars of 2011, according to a top 10 list released by Lionel NASCAR Collectables. However in a surprise showing, Daytona 500 winner Trevor Bayne clinched the third sport as his #21 Motorcraft Daytona 500 Win Ford made the cut. While Gordon's AARP Chevy was the best-selling die-cast car, Dale Earnhardt Jr. tops the list as the driver garnering the most die-cast sales in 2011. Earnhardt cars claimed spots four, seven and nine. Another Earnhardt also made the list of heavy hitters. Dale Earnhardt's #96 Cardinal Tractor Ford was introduced in July as the first release in the company's NASCAR Classics line - a series of historical die-cast which have never before been made. The result? Collectors loved the #96 car so much; it shot to the sixth spot on the list of 2011 best-sellers. The Top 10 Die-Cast Cars of 2011 are listed below.
1. Jeff Gordon #24 AARP/Drive to End Hunger Chevy
2. Kevin Harvick #29 Budweiser Chevy
