Helio won the race, he won the car, a photographer asked him what he thought about the car. He said "I love it" (in his accent of course) and then jumped on the hood. He didn't scratch it, I looked after he did it, but it doesn't matter since it is his car.

Last I heard GM said they weren't offering an Indy 500 pacecar replica.

that could be a pretty popular item. cant cost too much to have some replica kits made. it works for the vette pretty well, why not the camaro?

Looks like just a simple stripe package. I still think the 1993 Indy pace car Camaro is the benchmark in terms of pace car styling. I've never seen one that was executed better than that one.

There were 25 festival cars, as pictured above. And 3 actual pace cars.
20 of the 25 festival cars are up for sale.

funny, I've seen one of them around town and I think the graphics on the 93 pace car are tacky.

Yes, but they were "in style" in the early 90's.

No, they are decals. But it is a true two-tone car.
