I just bought a blaster of Main Event at Target and pulled a All-Stars insert of Jimmie Johnson 117/199 and a Rear View Mirror insert of Tony Stewart 49/50. In the data base they just have one item listed for each of these and no numbered parallels listed. Are there no parallels and what they have listed is what I pulled?...or do they just not have the parallels up yet?

2011 Main Event Database Question...

Pretty sure that they aren't in yet since there are All-Star cards that are not numbered. Also, I think the ones that come in the "Bonus Pack" of the Blasters are going to be missing from the database - at least for now.

I haven't see a ton of them broken, but from what I pulled and what I've seen, I've only seen Blue Parallels being pulled from them.
They might be retail-only parallels. It is odd that they'd have S#'s though.
To answer this for sure, go to NUTS. PM one of the Press Pass employees who are members there. You could also ask any of the MODs/Admins there and they know exactly who to contact for the full info. That is the best answer I can give. PP IS starting to really put some confusion into their sets (retail vs. hobby differences AND same-type cards with diff. serial #'s). It really is starting to get annoying, but I'm sure you can find your answer on NUTS eventually. You'd probably find the answer there before you would here.

RE: 2011 Main Event Database Question...
I'm thinking the Blue's might be retail only...but yeah they come in those 1 card bonus packs and are /75. I was surprised to get 3 numbered cards in my 1 blaster :-)
Well I was loading mine into ORG tonight and am glad we had this discussion as I rechecked and my JGR 20th card is numbered /50
I could barely see it, but noticed it is a refractor. It is also not in ORG yet. Ken

From Press Pass site: "The Wheels Main Event box blaster features: 7 packs with 5 cards in each pack PLUS one BONUS PACK with an exclusive numbered parallel or a bonus hit from the Press Pass archives!" here is press pass' checklist: http://www.presspassinc.com/uploads/news/files/me11.pdf
Gotcha....so I'm guessing the "Archives" is probably a buy back hit? I think I've seen some hobby box breaks where they pulled older race used or autos from a previous wheels product. I'm sure in retail those are few and far between, but pretty cool idea.

Yup, the one article I read had all the cards broke and this was the bonus pack card: "Ryan Newman Under Cover Car Cover Memorabila Card 3/140" This card is from 2006 Press Pass Eclipse |
