Random Card of the Day

Year: 2002

“ Of all the sets issued in the 2000s, this is one of the ones I have the least represented in my collection. I have 12 of them...didn't have that many until about a month ago when a friend gave me a whole bunch of cards, that included some from this set. Before that I had around 5. Don't know why this set just never made it into my collection, my local shop must have not gotten it or sold out before I got to it. (either is possible) ” -Billy Kingsley

“ RAcing isn't my thing this looks like an OK card shows both car and Driver. Many racing fans have complained about sets that don't show the car. ” -captkirk42

“ He doesn't look very fast. I like that the driver and car photos get nearly equal real estate on the front of the card. ” -dilemma19

“ Not bad for a race card. ” -uncaian

“ Not the biggest fan of some of the base sets, but man those insert sets are really cool! ” -Joshua825

Billy, you don't have many of them b/c they suck! ;) Optima was the worst Press Pass brand ever and they still continued it for way too many years. The Optima XL set in 1994 was nice b/c of the odd size (Fleer GameDay size for the NFL/NBA collectors). The Optima insert sets were usually pretty nice, but most of the base sets were horrible, esp. in the 2000's.
