Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 #8 Cheddar’s Scratch Kitchen — NASCAR Slot Car

Experience the excitement and heritage of NASCAR racing with the Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 #8 Cheddar’s Scratch Kitchen, a detailed slot car inspired by the Richard Childress Racing machine driven by Kyle Busch in the NASCAR Cup Series. With its distinctive black, orange, and purple livery, this model captures the aggressive appearance of one of the most recognizable Chevrolet race cars of the modern NASCAR era.

The Story Behind the #8 Chevrolet

The story of this car is closely connected to Kyle Busch, one of the most accomplished drivers of NASCAR's modern era. Busch joined Richard Childress Racing (RCR) for the 2023 NASCAR Cup Series season after spending 15 seasons with Joe Gibbs Racing. He took over the No. 8 Chevrolet, giving the number a new chapter with one of NASCAR's most successful active drivers.

The partnership between Cheddar’s Scratch Kitchen and Richard Childress Racing actually began before Busch arrived at RCR. Cheddar’s entered a multi-year, multi-race sponsorship agreement with RCR in 2020 and continued its relationship with the No. 8 team when Busch became its driver in 2023.

The result was the striking Cheddar’s Scratch Kitchen Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, instantly recognizable by its black body, bright orange accents and large white #8 graphics.

From the Real Track to Your Collection

The No. 8 Cheddar’s Chevrolet competed in the NASCAR Cup Series, one of the most demanding forms of stock-car racing in the world. The Camaro ZL1 combined Chevrolet's racing identity with RCR's competition program and the distinctive branding of Cheddar’s Scratch Kitchen.

One memorable example came at the 2024 Coke Zero Sugar 400 at Daytona, where Busch and the No. 8 Cheddar’s Camaro finished second, missing the victory by only 0.047 seconds after a dramatic overtime restart. 

The Cheddar’s colors continued to appear on the No. 8 Chevrolet in subsequent NASCAR seasons, including multiple races during the 2025 Cup Series season. 

A Design Made for NASCAR Fans

This model captures the visual character of the real race car with an extensive collection of racing details. The large Cheddar’s Scratch Kitchen branding dominates the hood and doors, while the #8 graphics, Chevrolet badges, sponsor decals and aerodynamic elements recreate the appearance of a professional NASCAR machine.

The aggressive front splitter, detailed grille, racing wheels, side exhaust elements and large rear spoiler complete the competition-inspired look.

Racing Details from Every Angle

From the front grille to the rear spoiler, the model features details designed to reproduce the appearance of the real No. 8 Chevrolet.

The black-and-orange bodywork is complemented by sponsor graphics including Cheddar’s, Busch, Lenovo, 3CHI, BETMGM and other markings visible on the race car, giving the model an authentic motorsport appearance.
