1:18 1971 Dodge Challenger Pace Car by Greenlight

In the mid-sixties, there were two attempts to build an "Indianapolis of the West", a motor speedway that would take all of the great features of Indy and expand on them in a way that would accommodate races by all four dominant racing sanctioning bodies at that time: USAC & NASCAR for oval races, NHRA for drag races and FIA for road courses. Without the help of David Lockton, this dream would have never come true. The opening race took place in August 1970 with the promise of bringing celebrities to the track, in fact, the first race was a Celebrity Pro-Am race featuring many stars from the entertainment industry with pro race winning drivers.
