A Camaro ZL1 also will pace the weekend’s Continental Tire Series race.

“Pacing races at Indianapolis Motor Speedway is very important to Chevrolet,” said Jeff Chew, Marketing Manager for Chevy Racing. “Chevrolet is proud and honored to once again be part of this very special weekend at IMS, where we have had the honor to pace every NASCAR race, dating back to 1994. And, road racing fans will get a chance to see the 2014 Corvette Stingray pace a Grand-Am race for the very first time. It should be a very exciting weekend for sports-car enthusiasts.”
