INDY 500 PACE CAR
 
OK you guys---GM goes back to work on Monday the 5th....so let's get going.

The Indy auto show is over--no pace car announcement like last year....Will Camaro be done in time???? or will we have to put up with something else?

WHAT DO YOU HEAR?

I heard it was going to be the Cruze.









J/K!

Looks like you'll have to "put up" a Corvette again - http://www.corvetteblog.com/archives...announced.html

Today the Chevrolet Corvettes were revealed as the official Pace Cars of the 2009 Indianapolis 500 which takes place on Sunday, May 25, 2008.
And the fact that I've already seen that pace car in production at Bowling Green...

I hate to say this but , they might have been here a hundred years , 10 more will be amazing.....
In defense of GM, when the scheduling was determined they had no clue that the entire auto industry was about to implode.

Actually, the Daytona 500 is running THE DAY BEFORE Camaro Production starts.

I guarantee you that this will have a far greater audience than the Indy 500.

If they aren't the pace cars at Daytona, I don't know what else possibly could.

If they miss this race then they are IDIOTS.

Japanese transplants have did the same thing in the United States. Hold the taxpayer for ransom. Who pays all the taxes that are created? Not the big Corporations.....
There is already a thread out there for posts like this. Please stay on topic.

The Dale Jr. SEMA car looks eerily similar in paint scheme to previous Indy Pace Cars from GM.. hmmmmmm...

Not that I am disappointed with the vette, but it seriously should be an SS camaro just like the one in Fbodfathers avatar. I love that paint scheme.

+1 or something to that effect... especially since they start 'official' production the next day! :happyanim:

Anything is better than what INDY did in 2000. WTF is this?? An INDY pace car!! What...No! Say it isn't so.

The sad part is that this car was my first INDY 500 experience.:( I was younger at the time, and I specifically remember saying.. Where the hell is my vette!!!:mad0260:

Maybe you'll see a Camaro Pace Car at Indy once the convertible is available.
