    Flag Guy Fieri to Pace Indianapolis 500 in ZR1 Corvette


    “There are races and then there are races,” said Fieri. “And without a doubt, the Indy 500 is the race that I’ve always wanted to attend. And now, to be driving the Corvette Pace Car…this is going to be unbelievable.”

    Why in the world would they get Guy Fieri to drive the Pace Car?

    Maybe because Guy owns the following vehicles:

    "Fieri is an avid classic car collector. He owns a red 1968 Chevrolet Camaro SS convertible that is featured on his show. Among others, Fieri also has a 2011 Camaro SS convertible, 2007 Corvette, 1970 Chevelle SS 454, 1967 C10 pickup, 2006 Kodiak C4500 4X4, 2006 Silverado 2500 and a 2011 Cadillac Escalade ESV."

    Quoted from GM News - 5/21/2012

    While pacing the Indy 500, Guy, please be sure to SAVE the WAVE!

    No it's because everything gets turned into a circus these days. No and I will never watch his show to know what he features on it.
