There are few achievements a car can earn that can compare to being chosen as the pace car for the Indianapolis 500 race. A top honor for both the car and the driver, it is a spot reserved for only the best cars. With its selection as the 2008 Official Pace Car, the 2008 Chevy Corvette Z06 holds the record of 10 times having paced the Indy 500. In fact, two sports cars will pace the event, with the other being none other than, another Corvette. A 1978 Corvette will be sharing the pacing duties, celebrating the 30th Anniversary of the 1978 Pace Car.
