Roger Penske is Indy 500 Pace Car Driver...Z/28 Maybe
So the reason I posted this here is due to the fact that Roger Penske was instrumental in the original Z/28's rich and famed racing heritage that made the Z/28 what it is today.
LENGENDARY!!. I truly believe that the '17 Z/28 will make its debut at the Indy 500 with none other than Roger Penske at the wheel. The 50th anniversary of the Camaro Z/28 and the 100th running of the Indy 500 race to coincide in the same year. What do you think?

Well technically the 50th anniversary of the Camaro is 2017 and the 100th running of the Indy 500 is in 2016.

Technically, the Camaro was released in '66 as a '67 model year.

It would be nice but I doubt it. We just saw the first spy pic of it. It's too early, also taking into consideration that the ZL1 isn't available yet and was just revealed.

that would be truly amazing. mostly because I'll finally be able to make the Z/28 or ZL1 decision...

I would have liked to see a 50th ZL1 as the pace car.
