1995 Indy 500 Corvette Pace Cars
     
  I was fortunate to attend several times and Corvette & Chevrolet were largely responsible for my enjoyment. My local Chevy dealer had the tickets. Great seats are held year after year and handed down like seats in Giants stadium. The Corvette Pace cars were delivered to the Budget Car rental at the airport, simply because most of the folk who get to drive them arrive and leave at the airport.  
     
   
     
  The photo above was taken at Budget store at the airport, with the store manager Tony (a fellow C3 owner) and your truly. Deb and I flew in to pick up our Budget rental and it was not one of the actual 50-60 Corvette Pace cars, however we did get to see quite a few of them before the race. But after the race when we dropped off our rental Tony gave me one of the special Indiana license plates that all the Pace cars use in the month of May. Since most of the celebrities take their plate with them when they return their Pace Car I asked him where he got it, and he said: "It fell of Paul Page's car".  
   
 

 
     
 

Thanks again Tony and Chevrolet.
