The end of this latest, and probably last, buying/breaking spree, 3 Boxes of 2017 Absolute Racing. At $39 a box, this is a low risk break, if you ask me. Of course, I haven't hit anything all that spectacular, but potential, and a hobby box that is now priced to compete with those awful retail boxes...

Three decent boxes, I suppose. Nothing earth shattering, but that Ryan Newman Trios Auto is sweet. I have broken worse (just look at that box of 2016 Certified Racing I broke...stinky).

Look at all the pictures here:

Again made my sons jaw drop when he seen that Kahne & epically the Alligar congrats looks like a lot of fun

Nice breaks, but I was almost expecting another 'Dinger/Buescher in the last box. Those Tools AU's are pretty cool. You've been a Kahne AU-pulling machine lately!

I am loaded with Kasey Kahne stuff, no doubt. If he would win a race, or heck, even finish in the top 15, that would be cool. Talk about an under performer. At least Danica looked good and was somewhat compelling. Kahne is just mediocrity. I am doubting he is going to get a win in 2018...

I thought the second Dinger/Buescher was numbered, but when I did the scans...ya, no...

Another Cole Custer AU...top 5 in the Pocono Green 250 race today, too.
