Think Spring

Lust. Greed. Envy.


Yep, it's pretty hard not to invoke the seven deadly sins when looking at one of these Atomic Orange Indy Pace Cars. No telling how many commandments I'd break for one of these $66.995 babies. 500 will be offered to the public.

From the Corvette Museum:
"In years past, many Indy pace cars required extensive modification to perform their on-track tasks. The 2007 Corvette’s powertrain and suspension, including the 400-horsepower (298 kW) LS2 small-block V-8 engine, are more than adequate to maintain the speed, acceleration and handling required to lead the pack around the famed “Brickyard” race track. "

2007 marks the ninth year the Corvette has been chosen to pace the Indy 500. No word yet on who will be driving it.
