Chevrolet says a fire in the trunk, which contains a purpose-built auxiliary electrical kit to operate the numerous caution lights during the race, is to blame for the pace car bursting into flames during Saturday night's exhibition race at Daytona International Speedway.

Talk about an embarrassing moment.

So ALL the prior years in ALL the prior Pace cars that weren't a SMOLDER (pronounced volt) that had ALL the same lighting including back before LED’s & Micro circuitry cut the draw MASSIVELY on the system and Chevy blames everything else.

Yep, never mind all the charger fires...

BTW I've spent 18 years selling parts and 12 years in Automotive repairs so it's not like I'm a Rookie at electrics.

*Ring up 1 NO SALE* for Me

He should have shut his engine down as soon as he realized that he couldn’t see the other cars.

Austin Dillon on Pole.

Sounds like the fix is in to me. First Danica last year as a rookie then this. Just overlook one little detail in car inspection and surprise, surprise.

i like the ghost car effect, you could see the different line he took from Junior, but that extra two car length lead, well... your guess is as good as mine
