I don't know about you ...But i have to say i really started this race car collecting first back in 1994 in the 1/64 scales.
Then in 1999 my friend and i opened a diecast shop and that's what got me into getting all of these 1/24 scales and i do have a few 1/18's by the way.
I sold my part of the shop back in 2003 i just had a really hard time collecting after Dale died and just didn't want to do it anymore.
But my friend would always give me a Harvick & Dale Jr car when ever they had the special schemes come out and thanks to my kids they slowly got me back into collecting some of the drivers.
Last year alone i just got 1 Jimmie Johnson RCCA Elite and 2 Denny Hamlin special paint scheme RCCA Elite's and that was it.
I cut back alot on Nascar diecast. They are nice to look at and very detailed too.
RCCA stands for Racing Collectables Club of America made by Action....Just last year Action sold out to another company called Motorsports Authentics that still keeps the RCCA name. I'm a lifetime member of RCCA.

I have a bunch of NASCAR 1/24th stuff too.... several of the same ones you have, JP.....I actually wouldn't mind getting rid of most of them though..

You're not alone, JP! My diecasts race cars consists of NASCAR (Jeff Gordon's), Sprint Cars (Jeff Gordon's), Indy and IRL, F-1 and some Top Fuel Dragsters. In addition to those, I have all the models of Corvettes and Mustangs ever made.

Starman:

Great collection!

But no Richard Petty Superbirds? What gives?

[STARMAN 352ND]

Top Hat....I have only 1 #43 STP car have you notice that....
The reason is all my other Petty cars are at my Fathers house he is a BIG time Richard Petty fan so he has my others and yes one is a Franklin Mint 1:24 Superbird.

Roger that!

I have a few 1/24 Petty rides:

1964 Plymouth Belvedere
1969 Torino Talladega (signed by Da Man Hisself)
1970 Superbird (Southern)

I love Petty Blue!

I've got a lime Superbird in 1/18, with all the authentic SB decals. I also have a Le Mans Porsche, same scale.

If that's the Ertl version of the SB, I have one as well. I dig that color!

Which LM Porsche? I have a few GT1 and GT2 911s, including the Superflow version from UT Models.

Heya TopHat!

The Porsche is similar to Steve MacQueens version, only a different number; circa 1969. Very wedge shaped and streamlined.

Yes, I have the Ertle SB. It is nice. Almost got a chrome black one, but decided to get into the warbird side of the hobby as it's really my big interest in life.

What else ya got? I have a Torino, '71 Stang, and several others.
