Does Memory Lane Racing Still Sell Racing Prints or Other Items?
Updated
No — the racing prints are essentially gone, but the site still sells things. According to Memory Lane Racing's own FAQ, its line of racing prints is "pretty much sold out," and that sellout is what prompted the site's makeover. What remains for sale is a personal collection listed on the site's "yard sale" page, covering militaria and "all sorts of other things" the owners have accumulated over the years. Payment is accepted via PayPal, and the site says most items can also be listed on its eBay account if a buyer wants eBay's additional transaction protection.
What happened to the racing prints
The prints were a previous product line, not a current one. The FAQ states they are "pretty much sold out now," and after that happened the owners decided it was a good time to give the site a make-over. So if you arrived looking for the old print catalog, that inventory is no longer the point of the site.
What is actually for sale now
The current sales activity sits on the "yard sale" page. Per the FAQ, it consists of:
- A large personal collection of militaria
- "All sorts of other things" the owners have collected over the years
- Items being sold to "thin the herd a bit" rather than as a standing retail catalog
This is a collection clear-out, not a restocked store, so what's available depends on what has been listed and what hasn't sold yet.
How buying works
| Step | What to do | What to expect |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Go to the "yard sale" page | The items currently offered are listed there |
| 2 | Pay via PayPal | PayPal is the stated payment method |
| 3 | Ask about eBay listing (optional) | The site says most items can be placed on eBay if you want eBay's added security |
The eBay option is the notable detail: the owners describe having "a very reputable EBay account" and offer to move an item to eBay on request. If you're buying something expensive or from a seller you don't know, that's the route that gives you a platform-level dispute process instead of a direct PayPal payment.
What the site is mainly for now
Sales are a side activity. The FAQ describes Memory Lane Racing as "a blend of old and new racing information as well as opinions on both." Coverage spans all forms of motorsports — the owners attend local short tracks regularly and get to out-of-town races when they can — with particular emphasis on open-wheel short track racing, especially Sprints. There's also a stated NASCAR critique angle: the goal is to put facts about what NASCAR has done and is doing "out there for all to see and think about."
Update frequency is not fixed. The FAQ says "that remains to be seen, a couple of times a week for sure."
Practical takeaways
- Don't expect to order racing prints — that line is sold out.
- Check the "yard sale" page for what's actually available, and expect one-off collectible items rather than a consistent product catalog.
- PayPal is the payment method named on the site.
- If you want buyer protection beyond a direct PayPal payment, ask whether the item can be listed on the seller's eBay account first.
- The site's main output is racing commentary and information, not merchandise.
