    Collectibility

    Just thought I'd do this and see what others thought. How do you rank cards by collectibility? What are your preferences. My list:

    Four Wide
    Triple Burner
    Autograph
    Double Burner
    Firesuit - patch
    Firesuit
    Sheet metal
    Lugnuts
    Glove
    Head to Toe
    Hat
    Shoe
    Seat
    Window net
    Cool Threads
    Tire
    Pitstoppers
    Flag Triple
    Flag Single
    Cover
    Tear off
    RU enhanced card

    I'm assuming multi-colored items would be the most desired in each group. I tried to list all the items I could think of that have been issued. If I forgot something, feel free to add it.

    Lugnuts added
    Pitstoppers added

    You forgot lugnuts....those were at the very top for me, as far as single RU goes.

    I'd say Four Wides, then Firesuit Patches, then Autos, then Triple Burners....then the rest pretty much how you have it. Lugnuts would be #5 after the above mentioned. And I'd move sheetmetal in front of firesuits.

    Nothing wrong with that list. If I were to modify it at all it would be to break down the autographs (signings) into their numbered categories so the shorter prints like the #/25s would appear above the DB, possibly the #/50 depending on the driver, the #/100 would fall above the WAT and the base would be above the tires. Not mentioned but ranking above even the FW would be any signature series RU.

    Top 5 for me:

    Sig Series-preferrably Legends Sig Series
    Four Wides
    Triple Mem cards-like the prominent pieces in 08 legends
    Sheet Metal
    Firesuits/gloves

    WOW great thread....Let me see what I can do to butcher the list
    and not mentioned but the UD Firesuit/piston rings were VERY cool to me but they did some other piece that I cant remember that was crap.

    Four Wide - never owned one but I think thats where it would be on the list...
    Triple Burner - I love these
    Double Burner - also nice
    Firesuit - patch - again dont own any
    Firesuit - love em
    Sheet metal - prefer the big pieces like I own but these are just cool
    Autograph - having gotten so many in person...the certified dont generally mean as much to me
    Glove - real neat
    Lugnuts - these always were neat to me
    Shoe - some of my favorite Robby Gordon cards are the Shoe cards
    Head to Toe - I know this is crazy...just dont like the hat cards
    Tire - some are cool....some not as much
    Hat - these don't appeal to me that much
    Cover - I like trying to see how many different single colors I can get
    Flag Triple - hokey
    Flag Single - hokey
    Window net - hokey
    Seat - hokier
    Cool Threads - I hate these
    Tear off - I hate these more
    RU enhanced card - I like some of the card designs but collectibility...not so much
