Default Hero Card with Earnhardt Signature Series?

I noticed today in my paperwork I got with my purchase of a 2002 MC SS Dale Earnhardt Signature Series it mentions about an enclosed "Hero Card". Tried googling it and didn't come up with anything, anyone seen this so called "Hero Card"?

I know about a COA (Certificate Of Authenticity), but I never heard about a "Hero Card". Curious if you can find out what that is referring to.

Here is a scanned copy, I didn't realize this is what the dealer received. So the dealer apparently got the "Hero Card". Interesting reading on which dealerships received the Dale Earnhardt Signature Series cars.

Here is a link to ebay if you want to buy one!

this is what it looks like, they used to have them at Chevy dealer ships and they also came with the Cars paper work. If you bought it used you might not have it. There is also one for the 2004 intimidator MC

Ahh, I was thinking it was like a baseball looking trading card with Dale Earnhardt Sr on it. So I do have that same paper you posted that was included in the paperwork. Thank you for clarifying

I might be as close to the expert on the Dale stuff as you can get.
Mainly because he was my doppelganger. He actually looked like me. Because my birthday is 150 days before his.
Met him once too, back in the late 80's had no idea who he was either. True story he said you have no idea who I am do you? I said; yeah your just some Bozo that looks like me. he almost choked on his drink and spit it out.
Here is the comparison photo's There are some Dale ones in there too. on the second one.
1st one Dale at the top.

that is interesting. If the hero card is what Dean found, it is pretty common promotional material. But still cool! Definately worth having to go with the Monte! And the letter about allocation is also neat!

WHEN that car came out several dealers nearby thought I should have one, they invited me to look at them and I saw all the paperwork.
but we had 2 kids heading to college and it just wasn't in the budget.

I wanted an SS back in the day but being I was in college I could not afford an SS so I found a silver LS Sport with 3,000 miles on it that I bought. First trip I took with it was an 8 hr drive to North Carolina. I was so excited to have a sunroof and I had it open the entire time. Did not think about the sun shining in, when I got to NC I had a sunburnt down the one side of my face. Lol. Then in 07 I traded my 01 LS Sport for a 07 SS Monte Carlo. Had that for almost 100k miles till I traded it for a truck. Wish I would have kept that car.
