Cruz Pedregon MAC Tools “Cruz Missile” 2000 Pontiac Firebird Funny Car 1:24 Diecast – Action / Lionel ARC NHRA Collectible

When the Cruz Missile rolled into the beams, fans paid attention.

Cruz Pedregon has been one of the most respected and resilient drivers in NHRA Funny Car history. A fierce competitor with smooth driving instincts and sharp reaction times, Cruz captured the 1992 NHRA Funny Car World Championship, proving he could take down the biggest names in the sport. Years later, he would add a second Funny Car world title in 2008 — a testament to his longevity in the nitro ranks.

By 2000, driving the MAC Tools Pontiac Firebird Funny Car, Cruz was firmly established as one of the class’s toughest competitors. The “Cruz Missile” era represented peak early-2000s Funny Car rivalry — when stacked fields, bold sponsor liveries, and door-slammer battles made every Sunday unpredictable.

The Pontiac Firebird body style of that era became iconic — aggressive, aerodynamic, and perfectly suited for nitro power under the lights.

This 2000 Cruz Pedregon MAC Tools Cruz Missile Pontiac Firebird 1:24 diecast, produced by Action / Lionel ARC, captures that high-energy chapter of NHRA competition.

Pre-owned and in good condition, this piece is a strong addition for collectors who appreciate championship pedigree, early-2000s Funny Car battles, and one of the sport’s most enduring fan favorites.
