Hi to all of our clients,
It's getting close to crunch time and we are wanting to give everyone a heads up with this important and latest update.
Subject:
2026 NHRA diecast arrival information
The 2026 NHRA diecast 1/24th scale replicas are expected to begin arriving to the U.S. mainland by the end of this month. This process with so many releases expected to arrive in the next 30-45 days more than likely the arrival process will run through most of September and we're believing into October. When the pre order process began months ago the estimated arrival period was August but from experience we knew that was a stretch. Please know that we can only relay the information we are able to get from Round 2 which is not easy to obtain these days. At this point Auto World/Round 2 has not announced any extended delays so we are anticipating a very busy next 30-45 days. Important to know: NOT all of the replicas due will arrive at the same exact time to the port of entry. The arrival process will last into most of September and possibly into October as well which is in our estimation.
There were many preorders placed with multiple cars ordered so with that we wanted to give everyone enough time to prepare.
With the anticipation of the new products arrival we will begin our normal invoicing process in the next few days so please keep an on your junk files. Everyone who placed a preorder with us will receive an invoice guaranteed. Please note that an invoice needs to be paid in full before we will ship any individual products to avoid "cherry picking." Important to know: We can not break up an invoice into shipping only certain replicas as an example unless that invoice has been paid in full.. This is a consistent policy we have always had here. We all knew they were arriving within a small window period which happens every year.
With all incoming within a short period we know it can make things difficult which is why we wanted to get the arrival news out there asap. We've been trying for weeks for updates and this is all we have as of today 08/21/2026.
Please reach out to us if you have any questions and or concerns.

2026 NHRA Northwest Nationals
What a race day morning it was when Jim Ledbetter from JL Motorsports Custom Diecast presented Maddi Gordon with this amazing 1/16th scale custom of Maddi's first win Carlyle Tools NHRA Top Fuel Dragster. Lets just say the Ron Capps Racing Hospitality and pit areas energy levels went to another level during this presentation. It was an amazing scene! Special thanks to Ron Capps Racing, Maddi Gordon Racing and all the sponsors who allowed this to happen. Doing projects like this the right way when obtaining approvals from teams and sponsors is a ton of behind the scenes work that most collectors don't see.
Thank you
Maddi Gordon Racing

An important update from us:
For all of our new clients this is our normal operating procedure we follow every year.
Don't be alarmed when you see a significant reduction with our offerings on our website effective 06/21/2026.
As most of you know we work out of 2 locations, Arizona and Washington State. Like last year and again this year we have decided not to bring a majority of product to our Washington State location. We will continue to have product available but not all of our inventory will be making the trip.
With the significant number of new 2026 NHRA products arriving to us soon we turn our focus to fulfilling our preorders efficiently and effectively.
With the amount of product we ship during these annual periods it does take priority. We've been doing this process for a long time and can confidentially say we have successfully processed multiple thousands, yes thousands, of preorders over the years.
Your trust, patience, and confidence in us has been the key to our overall success for over 25 plus years!
We can't thank you all enough!!
Our current inventory consists of some very hard to find products (which many of you have already added to your collections) from old stock, collections recently purchased, and we just obtained another collection of some amazing NHRA releases (The Mad Mike Collection) that we have been slowly but surely posting and will be reposting when we arrive back to our Arizona location sometime in the fall.
In the meantime even with us not hauling a majority of our product to Washington we have quite a bit of inventory currently at our Washington location that will be available while we prepare for the arrival of the new 2026 NHRA products.
If you are eyeing something on our website currently and may want it before our fall return please get your order in before June 20th.
Thank you all for working with us and keeping us the number #1 selling NHRA diecast dealer in the country.
