2011 Indy Pace Car will it be a convertible? It could be...
|
could be, it should be! Arctic White with IOM stripes and matching IOM interior.
|
First off I've yet to get any insider info so this is mere speculation. It will be announced just after Xmas. However here's what's got me wondering. What is the motivation and reasoning for those Z28 mules running around with a huge IMS Centennial logo's on the doors? Why would GM want to put them on there and why would the Speedway allow them to? It could be totally unrelated of course.
A possible senario would be Z28's as the actual track pace car (three of them actually), and some/all of the fleet of event/festival cars being 'verts. Many times over the years the event/festival cars have differed from the actual pace car(s). We'll see pretty soon!!!!!:chevy: |

LOL... I agree.. Since I have a 2011 white with IOM strips I would love to see it as a pace car this coming year.. I might have to add a indy decal to the back trunk lid across from the SS if it is the case.. ;) Come on GM make it so!! :D |

I've been thinking that since those first pics from Cali came out, seems likely to me, the part about the Z being the pace car, hadn't thought about the verts being used as event cars, that would be cool, though. Just think about it, would there be a better way to officially unveil the new Z28? Other than possibly Daytona, I doubt it.....:chevy::popcorn: |

Also how would they install the light bar on the roof of a vert? |

However they could use them as "parade" or festival cars. |

Not sure where you getting your info on this.. There have been several convertibles over the years as pace cars and as late as 2007. If you read anything from the speedway on changes regarding the use of verts please post .. Thanks Here a few pictures of the last few verts used 2007 Corvette pace car http://www.indypacecars.com/photos/2007/07corvette4.jpg 2005 Corvette Pace Car http://www.indypacecars.com/photos/2005/05corvette2.jpg 2003 SSR Pace Car http://www.indypacecars.com/photos/2003/03ssr1.jpg |

(White with blue isn't too bad either!) |
Will it be a Camaro? Wouldn't surprise me to see some ricer or Ford Fusion hybrid.

Also white with orange stripes has been done already, TWICE. In '69 for the 500 and in '96 for the third Brickyard 400. How about they do it in white with blue as a tribute the very first Camaro pace car. Not that I'm impartial or anything!;) |
all valid thoughts, here is another one the anouncement of Chevrolet power being reintroduced to INDY for an engine...would all be a good tie in
