“When Budweiser met horsepower, a legend was born.
When you think of NHRA legends who transcended the sport, one name stands above the rest—Kenny “The King” Bernstein.
This 1988 Budweiser King Oldsmobile Funny Car 1:24 diecast captures the era when Bernstein wasn’t just winning races—he was redefining what a drag racing superstar looked like. Backed by Budweiser, one of the biggest sponsors in motorsports history, Bernstein brought mainstream attention to NHRA like few ever have.
Produced in 1996 by Action / Lionel RCCA, this collectible honors Bernstein’s dominant Funny Car years, where his iconic red Budweiser machine became one of the most recognizable cars in drag racing. Known for his precision, innovation, and business savvy, Bernstein would go on to become a multi-time champion and one of the first drivers to truly bridge performance and brand power.
This piece features the unmistakable Budweiser King livery, detailed sponsor logos, and the aggressive stance that defined late-80s Funny Cars.
This example is pre-owned in great condition and comes with its original 1996 packaging, making it a standout addition for collectors who appreciate both racing history and iconic sponsorship eras.
At Revelry1 Staging Lanes, this isn’t just another Funny Car—it’s a piece of the moment when drag racing hit the big time.
