Gary Scelzi “Grab Life By The Horns” 2003 Dodge Funny Car 1:24 Diecast – 1 of 750 Racing Champions NHRA Collectible

When Gary Scelzi rolled into the staging lanes, you got personality and performance.

A true fan favorite, Scelzi built one of the most versatile careers in NHRA nitro history. He captured two NHRA Top Fuel World Championships (1997, 1998) before later adding a Funny Car World Championship in 2005, proving he could win at the highest level in both nitro categories.

By 2003, driving the bold “Grab Life By The Horns” Dodge Funny Car, Scelzi was firmly established as one of the toughest competitors in the Funny Car ranks. Known for his charisma off the track and fearless driving on it, Gary brought energy to the sport while battling through one of the most competitive eras in NHRA history.

The Dodge body style of the early 2000s was aggressive and unmistakable — and the “Grab Life By The Horns” theme perfectly matched Scelzi’s larger-than-life presence.

This 2003 Gary Scelzi Dodge Funny Car 1:24 diecast, produced by Racing Champions and limited to just 1 of 750 made, is an ultra-low production collectible from the peak rivalry era.

Pre-owned and in great condition, this rare piece is a standout for collectors who appreciate multi-class champions and bold early-2000s Funny Car liveries.
