Us Mopar fans would prefer you not try to relate the new Camaro to our brand, the Challenger is a far better looking car, all the credit for the Camaro should go where it belongs, to GM.

Great looking car. What happens to the pace cars after the races (NASCAR also)?

I remember when the manufacturer would offer "pace car" packages to buy.

They would also give the actual pace cars away in a contest or sweepstake.

I can remember various pace cars over the years, and the replica models that were offered for sale in the dealerships at the time.

I used to be a fan of Indy car racing, and still enjoy it occasionally if I happen to find one of the races on TV. I remember watching the Indy 500 back around 1979 to 1984, or so. I became interested because a guy from my neighborhood, Dennis Firestone, was racing there. His daughter and I went to school together. Unfortunately, he never finished well in the years I watched him race. That was back around the time when Rick Mears started winning races, so I became interested in watching him race. Since there were other members of his family racing elsewhere, I became interested in what they were doing, too. His brother, Roger, raced off-road trucks, as well as a number of other things, around the same time. A while later, Roger's son Casey, started racing NASCAR. Eventually, I became interested more in off-road racing, and after that, stock car racing, of which I still follow some of the series now. I've always enjoyed following the racing where I knew some of the competitors.
