Lord knows, the cars they actually race don't reflect that true vehicles the mfrs. offer. (But thats an old debate I won't get into.)

I'm looking forward to seeing the new Camaro as a Pace Car. The '69 Pace Car is one of my all-time favorties.

Speaking of Daytona, I go to the 500 each Feb., and Chevrolet's display is impressive! But this year, I'm trying to sell my 4 tx., for the race, so I may not see the display.
