A museum and children’s discovery centre is being built by US racing legend Al Unser (above) in the family’s home town of Albuquerque, New Mexico.

The centre will teach children the history and development of the internal combustion engine, and will feature a simulator and IMAX amphitheatre.

The museum so far has 37 restored cars from the careers of Al Unser Snr, Al Jnr and Snr’s nephew, Johnny, along with all their race memorabilia.

The centre and museum, a non-profit organisation, should open in autumn 2003.
