One of the few times I watched a race all the way through...I see video of those last seconds from that time and still wonder at how a relatively minor wreck ended so badly for the Earnhardt family. Anyone who saw Davey Allison's massive endo in '92 would have to agree that crash magnitude has nothing to do with physical danger in racing.
The Matchbox truck is somewhat larger than HO scale and thus only looks good in a model setting surrounded by larger scenic elements, such as buildings and hills, away from figures and other closer to scale vehicles.
While I still pick up the occasional old school NASCAR item when it is close to HO size, watching racing itself lost its luster shortly after Dale's passing. The cars nowadays bear little resemblance to their real life counterparts and, quite frankly, look like they're all made by the same manufacturer, the only difference being the decals used to fake the headlights and grills.
