Default Quick question about RPO code 194 - pace car?

I have a 2002 Z06.

Looking at my RPO codes, I see this:
194 Trim Combination, Leather, Yellow (Pace Car)

What exactly was included in this RPO, was it just the yellow leather seats? I can't find any pictures of this other than the actual pace cars, but this is a Z06 so I don't believe it could have ever been a full-fledged pace car edition.

Since there was not a Pace Car Corvette in 2002, this is a strange code. According to the Corvette Black Book, RPO interior code 194 is black (Z06).

Thanks, is it possible that the 194 code for yellow pace car trim was used only in 1998 for the pace car edition, and then re-assigned for all other years to mean black interior?

I pulled the info from here but it only lists 194 as the pace car trim, which is what prompted the question:

Interior code 194 is yellow in 1998 for the Pace Car, but 194 is black for 2002. Corvette Black Book.
