When we think of our first car it not often we look back to our childhood and the collection of toy cars we had. The hours we spent playing on the floor pretending that one day we will have a life size car, just like the ones we had grown up with.

Tanner Foust completes record-setting Team Hot Wheels jump at Indy 500

Hot wheels have made this a reality when they constructed a life size ramp. The ramp constructed of orange track that we all grew up with was hung from a giant 10 story door. The ramp 90ft long, 40 ft wide propelled the Hot Wheel truck 332 feet through the air, setting a world record for four-wheeled vehicles. The Driver was none other than Top Gear America's host Tanner Foust.

The Jump took place prior to the start of "Indy 500" at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
