Who wants to see a camouflaged car driving around the IMS?

Probably safer than letting Reuss behind the wheel.

Could happen for the 2020 race but not this year. Chevrolet may have some generic info at the Chevy display but that would be about all.

You're right. It showed up in a photo thread today and I assumed it was current- silly me! My brother emailed me yesterday about seeing some Indy coverage on the Today Show that morning. In the background they were showing a couple C7s, so I thought this photo was tied to that. In any case, I'm certainly not expecting any C8 exposure at Indy this weekend. If I'm wrong, I can live with that.
