On August 6,1994, I sat in the stands at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, and watched Jeff Gordon win the very first Brickyard 400 NASCAR race.

 The crowd exploded in a standing ovation as this Hoosier native won the inaugural running of the now popular race.

Then, in 1995, the winner drove the vehicle that the RC Car below models.

Make room under the bed for this race car, or park it in the garage next to the family car.

It's only 6-times smaller than the actual Ferrari racer at 2.3-feet long and 7 1/2-inches in height.

Race it along at speeds approaching 20-MPH, and when you place it in a show take the top off for look at the cockpit detail.

This Mercedes McLaren is a 10th scale model of the actual car, with inside features that mirror its full-size relative.

It's a fast car with speeds as-fast-as 15 miles-an-hour.

And the door opens with the push of a button on the radio controller.
