This Tony 'Smoke' Stewart diecast 2008 is an incredible car with an incredible history. Tony 'Smoke' Stewart earned his nickname during his early racing career in the USAC Series, where he ran Sprint and Midget cars. He used to slip the right rear tire a lot on the dirt tracks and the nickname was born. When Stewart moved to Indy cars, he started blowing engines and 'Smoke really stuck. I've had it ever since,' he says.
Two-time NASCAR Champion, Tony Stewart 'Smoke' ran this special 'Smoke' paint scheme during a test ride at Pocono Raceway on May 27th and 28th, 2008. Now fans can commemorate that memorable nickname with this Tony Stewart 'Smoke' 2008 diecast by Motorsports Authentics. It's a very cool nickname and a very cool looking diecast that will be even more collectible, now that Stewart is leaving Joe Gibbs Racing after the 2008 season to form Stewart-Haas Racing. Joe Gibbs gave the driver his big break into the NASCAR Nextel Cup Series when the race team owner saw Tony's raw talent and decided it was too good to pass up. Marking Stewart's last season with Gibbs, this paint scheme is extremely unique, as it's the only one that's based on the Tony 'Smoke' Stewart nickname.
