    did you see the video link I posted? It's from the 1999 Pocono 500, where this car was allegedly the pacer. It had strobes in the fog light, the mirrors, and on/above the rear window.

    My bad. Lol I looked at the current Pocono speedway requirements for pace cars. But I'm pretty sure the holes would have been filled before the car was put into the lottery, otherwise the state would have been liable for any damages resulting from the holes left in the body of the car.

    you can have flashers installed on your car, just like ground effect lights, turn them on while driving and now your breaking the law.

    That is also true. There is no discernable reason why this couldn't be a legitimate pace car.

    it could very well be. just needs the paper work to back it up, a old you tube vid of the race is not proof enough for me tho.

    theres always that guy whos collecting real pace cars and is will to spend the crazy money if its legit.

    I think I found the answer kiddos

    http://www.pabulletin.com/secure/dat...29-16/628.html

    That's the link with the rules to the lottery game, but this particular paragraph spells it out

    (b) Replicated Pocono Raceway Pace car. The replicated Pocono Raceway Pace car is a 1999 Grand Prix GTP Coupe with a decal package, 3.8 liter, 3800 Srs II Supercharged V6 engine, 4-speed automatic transmission with 16 inch aluminum wheels.
    It is a replica. It was not used in the race.

    Value is inversely proportional to the amount of rust on the rear strut towers and Rockers

    Unless there is more than one of them, Andrew Kyllonen owns the original Ponoco pace car.
    2004 Comp G "The Panda"- low, e85, big brakes SOLD
    2002 Trans Am- 6 speed, bolt ons or something, it's slow.
    2006 Silverado- forged ls2, 4l80e, plate kit, also slow...

    I'd like to thank everyone that helped with finding what we have here. Why I believed it was the actual pace car was from what I was told. Now i'm getting the whole story the reason they needed to change tires was that they took my father in law on a lap of the track in this car. And I'm not sure he knew it was a replica . So again thank you , now I have to tell my wives family that its a replica .

    Aw... It's still a rare find, but not as rare as hoped. A 1999 with 20k and some bad ass paint is still a gem in my book.
