  • The Better Idea For Pace Car laughs



    good going sparky



    After being unveiled in a public ceremony at the Virginia State Capitol, the 2012 Focus Electric pace cars are ready for their historic race weekend when they become the first all-electric vehicles to pace a NASCAR Sprint Cup event. The two Focus Electric vehicles will perform all pace car duties for the Capital City 400 presented by Virginia is for Lovers Saturday night at Richmond International Raceway. The two cars were unveiled by Eric Kuehn, chief nameplate engineer, Ford Global Electrified Programs; Mike Lynch, NASCAR's managing director of Green Innovation; and Virginia Lt. Gov. Bill Bolling. Production of the Focus Electric began in December at Ford's Michigan Assembly Plant in Wayne, Mich.(Ford), see image of the pace car on my 2012 Pace Car page.

              Slightly off topic, but that was a BS caution for the 'debris' at the end. I dont even like Tony, but id be sooo pissed if i were him right now.

                  Just when you thought nascar couldn't get any more lame. I remember some years ago when they had a Z06 'Vette pace one of the races and my friend said it could probably turn a faster lap then the pole sitter.
                  Just groovin' to my own tune.
