What's Buzz-worthy: Here's another past Press Pass blaster found in a bargain bin for less than $10 and I had let it stay there for a couple weeks, knowing that these don't guarantee anything every time -- though they can include hits. You get just four packs and this one included just a pair of inserts. However, it was a pair of rookies and several young names here that got my attention (perhaps since it's been four years since I'd last ripped into this) -- Rookie Cards of Daytona 500 winner Austin Dillon and Kyle Larson among them. The cards from this brand aren't expensive, but the Dillon was good timing. This brand is all about showcasing photos (drivers on the fronts, cars on the backs) and it has a trio of subsets that give things more of an insert/variety feel. Those include Snapshots, The Hot Seat and Giving Back, which looks at drivers' charitable efforts. Buying hobby boxes here (still available at the link) is the best way to go as those include an autograph and a memorabilia card in every box, while these boxes can be had in bulk as well as singles for less than $10 a pop.
