INDIANAPOLIS — The reminders that Jeff Gordon won here 20 years ago plaster Indianapolis Motor Speedway. There's a massive banner that drapes the grandstand containing Gordon's image with the years of his four Brickyard 400 victories listed. Stroll past the merchandise tent and there's a blast from 1994: Gordon, dressed in his red, yellow and green "Rainbow Warrior" firesuit for a 20th anniversary T-shirt photo, arms raised high in celebration.
