2004 monte carlo pace car
 
I've been off this for awhile but would like to share this.Nascar's head office sent me the dates my pace car was used throughout the 2004-2005 nascar season.My pace car was used in 12 nascar races and 4 other races put on by Nascar.They made 4 of these cars as I was told and mine was called number 4.I'm not sure if I mentioned it in the past but Nascar's President signed my pace car in June at Pocono raceway.They also told me that Brett Bodine drove it at the last race it paced on November 6th,2005 at Texas Motor Speedway.Brett bodine said he would sign the car but I have to go to n.c. A long trip in which I will make but gonna haul the car down there.I now have the right insurance on it as I can only drive it 2,000 miles a year or less.I only drove it about 700 miles this year mostly to Pocono raceway in June.Nascar's media group sent me 4 races that it was in on dvd.

Thanks so much for the video clip,pretty cool to be watching the car as it paced back than.I was at a car show and was told someone walked by and called the car a fake pace car.I really wish I wasn't walking around at that moment as I went to get lunch.Space and Lorenzo,Have a good day.

Thanks Lorenzo for finding/posting/sharing the vid of Member PaceCar04 Monte Carlo :thumbsup:

Sadly, there are some people that like to hurt with their words. (I believe that are just jealous) :) They speak without knowledge!

Wish all a Happy New Day to enjoy your Chevrolet Monte Carlo & `Life :thumbsup:

I wish I knew how to work this site like you guys.I think your right about jealousy.When i'm at a show,i never put anyones car down if anything I tell them what a beauty to make them feel good.Have a Happy and safe holiday season.Live long and be well.

No problem Pacecar04! The car is just so cool to see !

For those out there wondering how many strobes are in this car the answer is 22.The car is lower than all other monte carlo's as i'm guessing to look more like a race car when it was out there on the track.In order to get the front tires off you have to put a 2x4 board in front of the front tire,drive on it and than jack up the car.It has a very expensive battery ($240 Optima) to power up everything.They put in simpson lapbelts in the front seat on both driver and passenger seats.
