I was at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway yesterday for qualifications (gotta love that place!!).  I saw two pace cars (exactly the same in appearance, and I assume, functionality), but was able to get close enough to this one to get some good pix!  Enjoy!
 
Not sure if this is a separate VIN sequence like the original '78 Corvette Indy 500 Pace Car, so I snapped a close up of the VIN just in case.

Oh yeah! I loved that race. But then , my man Jimmy J. came through again. That felt almost as good as when your favorite football team wins. 49ERS  YEAH! 49ers

Well, at least you get to feel good once this year LOL.  Sorry.  Did the 9'ers win a game last year?  I am a big "Samurai Mike" Singletary fan though... manget12009-07-28 03:16:42
