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? |

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. |

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.

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!!! |

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