For
the 2010 NASCAR Brickyard 400, Arctic White Corvette
and Torch Red Grand Sport Convertibles used during the
Indy 500 were retained and rebadged with the Brickyard
400 event logos. Camaro Coupes were also used.
Jamie
McMurray, driver of the #1 Bass Pro Shops Chevrolet
was this year's winner. Earnhardt-Ganassi Racing dominated
this year's race by placing the #42 Target Chevrolet
driven by Juan Pablo Montoya on the pole to start the
race. JPM was a dominate factor during the race, but
went out late in the race after a spin and crash. The
win was huge for Earnhardt-Ganassi Racing, which this
time last year was struggling to prove the team was
stable and capable of competing for wins. On Sunday,
Chip Ganassi became the first team owner to win the
Daytona 500, Indianapolis 500 and Brickyard 400 in the
same season.

This
poor little Grand Sport held up fine to no less than
81/2 riders (yes, Jamie's wife was expecting !)
Check
out that rear wheel clearance !!
