Few racers in NHRA history were as universally respected and loved as Eric Medlen. Known for his incredible driving talent, contagious smile, and larger-than-life personality, Eric quickly became one of the brightest stars in Funny Car racing and an unforgettable member of the John Force Racing family.
This Eric Medlen Castrol Syntec 2004 Mustang Funny Car by Action / Lionel ARC is a beautifully detailed 1:24 scale diecast collectible celebrating one of the most recognizable Funny Cars of the early 2000s nitro era. Finished in the striking green and black Castrol Syntec paint scheme, this collectible captures the aggressive style and personality that made Eric a fan favorite everywhere he raced.
This edition is also a highly collectible 1 of only 2,136 produced, making it a standout piece for serious NHRA and Funny Car collectors.
Eric Medlen had far more than talent behind the wheel — he had the rare ability to connect with everyone around him. Fans, crew members, sponsors, and fellow racers all respected Eric not only for his driving ability but for the positive energy he brought to the sport. His personality helped make drag racing feel personal and approachable, and his impact on NHRA is still felt throughout the pits today.
Driving for legendary John Force Racing, Eric piloted the Castrol Syntec Mustang during one of the most competitive periods in modern Funny Car history. The Castrol colors became iconic on the NHRA tour, and Eric’s aggressive driving style made this car instantly recognizable every time it rolled to the starting line.
This diecast features authentic sponsor graphics, detailed chassis and engine components, realistic Goodyear slicks, wheelie bars, and a removable body revealing the detailed nitro Funny Car underneath. The sleek 2004 Mustang Funny Car body style combined with the iconic Castrol Syntec livery makes this one of the standout pieces from the era.
Eric Medlen’s legacy extends far beyond race wins. He represented the heart of drag racing — passion, personality, and love for the sport. This collectible serves as a tribute to one of NHRA’s most memorable drivers and an important chapter in Funny Car history.
At Revelry1, we celebrate the racers and machines that helped build drag racing into what it is today — and Eric Medlen remains one of the most respected names of the modern nitro era.
