Yes, briefly, in the pre-race show when they showed Robin Roberts before she got in to drive it before the race...

But they made absolutely NO mention of the car being a Camaro.

All Brent Musberger said was your driving the pace car... and asked how fast she went. She said 130...

You're right, but I don't blame ABC...whenever the Camaro paced any NASCAR races last year or this year they didn't say 'Camaro' either...:(

I think that someone on here might have mentioned that it had something to do with GM having to pay 'advertising fees' to showcase and talk about the brand name...

Please don't quote me on it, it's something I think I heard somewhere...

Makes sense, doesn't it??!!!....

Still do wish they would say, "Look at that BAD A** 'Bitchin' Chevy Camaro Pace Car"...

BTW, I just started a NEW THREAD for anyone that's going to watch the Coke 600, so we can watch it 'together', and maybe pick up a few more NASCAR fans by them seeing the title of the thread...

I just figured if someone that didn't watch the INDY 500, but was going to watch the COKE 600, saw a thread titled INDY 500, they wouldn't look at that thread, right??!!

So Dario won first in a rain shortened race, and he wins this one after a crash. It looked to me like he was about to lose the lead.
I'll have to watch GMA tomorrow to see what Robin Roberts says.

Dario led 155 out of 200 laps, so he was the strongest car out there today...even Tony Kanaan, who 'flew' up to 2nd, before having to stop for a splash of fuel at the end, said that Dario deserved to win and had the car to beat all day...
