Gary Ormsby Castrol GTX Top Fuel Dragster 1:24 RCCA Action Collectible

Before the 300 MPH era went mainstream, Gary Ormsby was already laying the foundation. This Castrol GTX dragster is a throwback to raw Top Fuel dominance—built for collectors who know exactly what they’re looking at.

There’s a certain era in drag racing that doesn’t get talked about enough—the time before the spotlight got bigger, when legends like Gary Ormsby were stacking wins and building the sport from the ground up.

This 1:24 scale Castrol GTX Top Fuel Dragster from Action Collectibles captures that moment.

Ormsby wasn’t just a competitor—he was a multi-time NHRA champion and one of the most respected names in the sport through the late ‘80s and early ‘90s. His partnership with Castrol became one of the most recognizable looks on the strip, and this piece brings that era back in full detail.

From the long, narrow chassis to the exposed engine detail and period-correct Castrol GTX livery, this is the kind of diecast that speaks to collectors who appreciate where the sport came from—not just where it is now.

This is an RCCA-era release, meaning lower production, higher quality, and stronger long-term collector appeal.

It’s not just a model—it’s a piece of drag racing history.
