Spotted the Charlotte Motor Speedway 1969 Camaro RS/SS 396 pace car parked behind NASCAR driver Wendell Scott in this photo.  You can tell it is the Charlotte car because it is the only NASCAR 1969 Camaro pace car that used the chrome trim rings on the wheels.  The side stripe is also a match.  I'm not sure if this was taken at Charlotte Motor Speedway or not.

If you look at the top left corner of this picture you will see the 1969 Camaro RS/SS convertible pace car for this event.  I know the picture is small but click on the following link and you can use the zoom and magnification tools to get a fantastic view of the car: https://repository.charlotte.edu/islandora/object/motorsports%3A24836

Very interesting!  Looks like it had the short rear spoiler and extended nose stripe!

Not only those but it is the only one of the 1969 NASCAR pace cars to have the chrome trim rings on the wheels.
