General Motors announced today that two Chevrolet Corvette s will be pacing next year’s Indianapolis 500. One of the Corvettes will be an E85-powered Z06 while the other will be a Corvette Convertible. The FlexFuel Z06 will be driven by Emerson Fittipaldi and is completely stock, other than a modified fuel system and PCM.
The Corvette Convertible pace car will sport a black and gray paint scheme, paying homage to the first Corvette pace car of 1978. 500 replicas will be available at Chevrolet dealers nationwide — in both coupe and convertible guise — each numbered and signed by Fittipaldi.
