Grading The Stars: Chase Elliott, NASCAR – There’s just something about the stars. They’re mesmerizing. Whether it’s the stars in sports, entertainment or in the sky, they captivate us with their dazzling ways and continue to shine ever so brightly for all of us to see.

In the Grading The Stars series, we’ll feature the stars of the past, present and future and grade them based on their prestige, performance and promise. Plus, we’ll highlight three cool cards of a star to collect under a certain dollar figure.

There are five grading levels of the stars: 10 = Icon (Blue Diamond), 9.5 = Legend (Platinum), 9 = Superstar (Gold), 8.5 = Star (Silver) and 8 = Rising Star (Bronze).

Today, we’ll feature a man who is arguably the face of NASCAR and won the 2020 Cup Series Championship, Chase Elliott.

Second Generation Sensation: Chase Elliott was born to go fast and destined to be a NASCAR driver. The son of 1988 Winston Cup Champion, Bill Elliott, Chase was featured in Sports Illustrated at 13 years old and created a path to fulfill his own legacy as a champion.

Most Popular Driver: Having a familiar name and incredible talent goes a long way with NASCAR fans, as Elliott won the 2022 National Motorsports Press Association (NMPA) Most Popular Driver Award. It’s the fifth consecutive year Elliott won the award.

Future Outlook: The future of the 27-year old Elliott is extremely bright. He already has one NASCAR Cup Series Championship and looking ahead, many fans and collectors hope the #9 car can challenge the record of 7. He’s definitely one to collect!

Grade: 9 = Superstar (Gold)
