2011 Press Pass Racing Forum

My research shows an error in the listing as well as variations in format (Horizontal versus Vertical format).

The "Firesuit Edition" as well as the "Sheet Metal Edition" were all (with 1 exception in the firesuits) were isssued in a vertical format (see Tony Stewart pic in Sheet Metal).  The Tire Edition was a Horizontal format as well as all the other Signature Series issued (Pit Wall Banner-11, Car Cover-3, Rookie Tape-1, Shoe-2, Shirt-3, and 1 Firesuit). 

The 1 Firesuit (BK-1) was a Horizontal format while the 1 Firesuit (BK-2) was a Vertical format. The Vertical format edition for BK-2 is for sale on ebay now.

The ERROR I found is in the listing for Matt Kenseth (2 of them) with one listed as a redemption card for a Sheet Metal Edition.  The Error is I found the Matt Kenseth Redemption should be for a Firesuit Edtion not a Sheet Metal Edition (both ADOBE Checklist for PP Premium shows this as well as BECKETT shows this).

The Tire edtion was issued in regular 2011 PP boxes, the multi race used were issued in 2011 Eclipse boxes and all had horizontal formats.  The Firesuit edition were issued in 2011 Premium boxes, the Sheet Metal edition were issued in 2011 Stealth boxes and all had a vertical format.

Part of the Matt Kenseth Firesuit error lies in a error in the card number itself.

SSMKF- should read SSFMK.  The last 2 letters in the card number should reflect the name of the driver.

KF does not stand for any driver but was interpeted as SSM-KF (Sheet Metal Edition).

SS - Signature Series // MK - Matt Kenseth // F - Firesuit  should be listed as SSFMK. iceiron5

Can you clarify, do you believe "SSM-KF" to be a typo in the card number field here in the database, was it transcribed from a typo on Press Pass' checklist, or is it printed that way on the card itself?

Reply,

A) I do not have the card (Matt Kenseth Firesuit).

B) I believe the card number is a typo shared with Beckett also.

C) The Press Pass Premium checklist does not list the card numbers at all (just 20 firesuit editions including MK as a redemption along with Logano).

D) Why in this 1 card # SSM-KF does not make logical sense since in 78 of the 79 card # after the "-" comes the drivers intials?  In this sense I believe the card # incorrect since -KF means nothing to correspond with Matt Kenseth (-MK).  

Beckett has the same error (I believe) in the card number but lists the card as a firesuit edition not a sheet metal edition.  Beckett and the TCDB have a difference in this part.  

Hope this clarify's my statements earlier. iceiron5

Ah, so that's probably one of Beckett's intentional typos.

Does this look right now?

(I fixed the card number and note, but the checklist has not been re-sorted yet)
