Did anyone check out the Corvette Pace Car at the 500 today? Yellow with a wing on the rear deck, what model is this? Bush > Did anyone check out the Corvette Pace Car at the 500 today?

Must have had a real downforce issue running 70mph stock. <g> -- SkyhawkXP Seize the pleasures of the moment, without concern for the future >> Did anyone check out the Corvette Pace Car at the 500 today? Yellow >> with a wing on the rear deck, what model is this? >> >> Bush > >Just a C6 coupe riced out. ===================================== I was very embarrassed by that Pace Car....never once did I mention to my wife that it was a Corvette Pace car... The Silver Pace car used in the Busch Race was fine...at least it was not riced out... The painted stinger on the Hood I could handle... but that ...wing completely shut my mouth... Whoever approved adding it should be transfered to the GM Corporate Janitorial staff ...and handed a broom... Bob Griffiths >>> Did anyone check out the Corvette Pace Car at the 500 today?

I think the chin spoiler is from the Z06 but not sure, take a look. http://www.corvetteactioncenter.com...ead.php?t=63137 SignatureDad 05 C6 Silver/Red 6spd Z51 72 Shark Black/Black/4spd Looked like a standard 2005 C6 coupe with a C6R wing on it.

Don't they *always* use a new car (year model) for the pace car? ~ Paul aka "Tha Driver" Giggle Cream - it makes dessert *funny*! > Am I missing something here?

The pace car that this thread is talking about has nothing to do with GM or Corvette, it has everything to do with NASCAR working the money angle a little more. My negative feeling may be because I dislike the asswings that are the current rage to make the grocery getter look like a grocery getter with a stupid asswing. To each his own, got to go look at some new lights for my mud flaps. SignatureDad 05 C6 Silver/Red 6spd Z51 72 Shark Black/Black/4spd Oh, right - NASCAR. What was I thinking? I've GOT to start getting some sleep somehow....LOL. Wings are a matter of taste, just like everything else. Make sure you get the *flashing* LEDs for those mudflaps! ~ Paul aka "Tha Driver" Easy on the Giggle Cream! |
