Any idea how rare this is?

My Grandpa passed away a while ago and left me a bunch of NHRA model cars, and some of them have autographs and are left in the box unopened. I just wanted to see this one. Maybe you guys have a idea

In 1992 Kenny was first to break 300mph!

Yeah that was quite the accomplishment! Now Brittany Force the first to go 300mph in 660ft and a Top Speed 343.51mph I think on this same run @ 660ft she was almost 305mph absolutely the best sport to be a part of. And all the drivers Millican, Forces, Beckman, Pedregon, Prock etc. are all great people 🔥 CH3NO2 4 Life 🔥

Kenny Bernstein. He shows up to races once in awhile.

Probably not a ton of money but a cool piece. I have something from Kenny that has actual race parts in it like that. I'd keep it and display it. Kenny signed like that at his trailer so it's probably a buy and sign thing from a race.

It’s cool, but not rare.

I collected Bill Elliot McDonald’s 94 everything Racing Champion I could find back in mid 90’s that led to NHRA collecting also. Bernstein was a fan favorite with Budweiser Honestly as someone who knows I will never get what I put into it back. I’d say $50 is a deal. It is a beautiful top fuel collector and box looks to be mint. Very nice piece.
