Default Indianapolis 500 Pace Car will be.....
......a gray Camaro/Camero.

Not sure how I feel about that. Seems like it should be the Vette, but maybe there's such a shortage, Chevy couldn't make enough pace car replicas?

The Camero is OK but why gray? Why not grey?

Between Two Shades: ‘Gray’ and ‘Grey’
When it comes to spelling, it’s not all black and white.

What to Know

Gray and grey are both common spellings of the color between black and white. Gray is more frequent in American English, whereas grey is more common in British English. The varying usage of both grey and gray extends to specialized terms such as animal species (gray/grey whale) and scientific terms (gray/grey matter). Greyhound is an exception, which has a different derivation than the color.
They're running a gray one, because it isn't the Leeds 500, or the London 500.

The Canadian Football League plays for the Grey Cup. Why? Because gray is gay.
