BACKA Star-Studded Checklist Fuels 2026 Panini Select Racing
Written by: Connor Zimmerlee
Few feelings in the world of sports can match the sheer adrenaline rush that comes from watching cars thunder around the racetrack. Flying over asphalt at hundreds of miles per hour, racers deliver can’t-miss performances every time they enter their car.
Those at home can now experience that thrill for themselves with the release of 2026 Panini Select Racing. Each hobby box comes with 12 packs of five cards, and you can look for three autographs or memorabilia cards, along with 12 parallels, per box, on average.
While cars warm up their tires and prepare for an exciting battle on the track with pace laps, you can do some of your own with Select’s traditional three-tier Base set that features legends and current stars alike.
Then, the race is officially underway, and cars go screaming into the turns while jockeying for position. As they battle it out and burn some rubber, you can search for race-used memorabilia cards of NASCAR icons such as Joey Logano and Denny Hamlin in Sparks and Selective Swatches.
The home stretch focuses on the all-time great drivers, with autographs from Dale Earnhardt Jr., Richard Petty and Darrell Waltrip, among others, ready to be found in Legendary Signatures.
Wrapping up this release and streaking across the finish line is the ultra-rare Black Color Blast insert, which is exclusive to hobby boxes. Under the checkered flag, you can celebrate by adding some of these stunning Panini Select Racing cards to your collection like you won first place yourself.
