Didn't they use a Chevy Sonic last weekend as the pace car? Whatever it was, it sure looked small and totally not a "pace car".

Yep...

Chevy's Sonic LTZ paced the MIS's Pure Michigan 400

Why don't they pace the races with a 2 door slab sided V-8 Toyota like they run in the races? Oh yeah, the car doesn't exist!:eyerole
