    Elite (76-84): Features amazing painted graphics of some of the top drivers in the sport.



    2010 Manufacturer Switches (85-90): Features the teams switch in car make or sponsor.



    2010 Press Pass Eclipse Racing is the first artistic NASCAR trading card set. The color and clarity on the base set cards is amazing. The attention to detail on these cards is second to none. This was a very exciting product to open.

    What I Pulled:

    Base Set- 88 of the 90 cards in the set with just 11 duplicates.

    Gold Parallels:



    I pulled 12 gold parallel cards:
    Drivers- Greg Biffle, Kyle Busch, Robby Gordon, Ryan Newman
    Horsepower- Denny Hamlin, Juan Pablo Montoya
    Anthology- Jeff Gordon: Indianapolis, Tony Stewart: Watkins Glen
    Party in the Desert- NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Banquet- Dale Earnhardt Jr., Jeff Gordon
    2010- Manufacturer Switches- AJ Allmendinger, Kasey Kayne

    Inserts:



    Kasey Kayne- Focus Insert
    NASCAR Hall of Fame 2010- First Road Course Race Insert



    Cars Inserts-

    Joey Logano- Driving the No. 20 The Home Depot Toyota
    Jeff Gordon- Driving the No. 24 Dupont Chevrolet
    Mark Martin- Driving the No. 5 Kellogg's/Carquest Chevrolet
    Kyle Busch- Driving the No. 18 M&M's Toyota



    Jeff Gordon- Decade Insert
    Carl Edwards- Decade Insert

    Autograph & Memorabilia:





    Kurt Busch- 2010 Press Pass Autograph

    Mark Martin- Spellbound Swatches- Race-Used Firesuit Letter N # 100/150
    Brad Keselowski- Spellbound Swatches- Race-Used Firesuit Letter O # 012/120
    Joey Logano- Spellbound Swatches- Race-Used Tire Letter O # 021/299

    The autographs and memorabilia that I pulled are all great cards. The Kurt Busch is a great autograph to pull, but I actually have 2 favorites.

    First is the Keselowski because of the 2 Color NASCAR patch piece on the Firesuit Swatch.

    The second is the Danica Patrick base card. Having Danica's 1st NASCAR cards in Press Pass products has peaked the interest of many collectors to buy this product to pull something of her.

    Final Thoughts:

    This was a fun product to open. The artistry, detail and precision on these cards is truly amazing. The combination of a painted style picture on the front with a retro look on the back will be a hit with collectors. As will all Press Pass products, the wide variety of On-Card autographs and the potential for multi-color swatch memorabilia that gives the collector the opportunity to spell out the name of their favorite driver(s), creates a buzz with this product and will put 2010 Press Pass Eclipse Racing on the top of everyone's want list.

    Here's how I would rate the product:

    Value- 5
    Innovation- 5
    Fun & Experience- 5
    Rebuy Value- 5

    I rate this product a solid A+ for Press Pass!!!

                  Those are really awesome!! That had to be a really time consuming sub-set to produce. Way to go

                      Those mosaics are amazing. That had to take some work to complete.
