Product Overview
The Talladega Superspeedway® is a monument to the speed and excitement that defines NASCAR racing. With its legendary backstretch and dynamic turns, it has witnessed countless historic moments, including the unforgettable incident in 1986 when a fan took command of the pace car. The sight of a big diesel rig proudly bearing the American Flag is a tradition that continues to stir the hearts of fans. Capturing this spirit, Thomas Kinkade Studios' limited edition paper artwork celebrates the storied past and vibrant future of "NASCAR at Talladega", immortalizing the track's legacy in a way that only the "Painter of Light" could have envisioned.
