Here is a great color picture of the Corvette Aero Coupe on track prior to the Can Am event.  The fact that this red Dream/Concept Car was on track prior to the event probably means that the yellow Camaro Z/427 and dark blue/gray Corvette Manta Ray were also on track during the parade lap. 

It is part of the Healy Family photo collection: https://garyellen.smugmug.com/Healey-Family-Photos/Box-11-1968-House-1968-69-Watkins-Glen/

The pacer looks to be a 396 car with that black tailpanel.
