It would also carry the distinction of leading the Indianapolis 500 as the official 'Pace Car'. All of the 1986 Corvette Roadsters were designated as Pace Cars and included the Indianapolis 500 Decal Package in the price. However, the only ones used at the Indy Track for the pre-race activities and the actual Pace Car were all Yellow in color. The totally new Roadster was a mid-year introduction. A considerable amount of engineering went into the structural changes and substantial suspension tuning refinements. The press immediately picked up on the clean classic lines of the Roadster, and of course, its handling and performance capabilities. New features for the 1986 Corvette Coupe and Roadster included the following: · The Bosch ABS II anti-lock brake system, integrated with the four wheel discs, which superimposes its logic over a driver’s foot. ABS utilizes sophisticated electronics to detect when any wheel is on the verge of locking up. It then precisely controls the wheel’s braking action to make use of maximum available traction. · VATS – The vehicle anti-theft system was a significant development that drastically reduced Corvette thefts. This special ignition key, which was standard equipment, had an electronic coding feature that would disable the ignition if the wrong key was used, or if the normal ignition system was bypassed. · The government mandated, centrally located rear stoplight appeared above the rear window on the Coupes and above the “Corvette” logo on the rear of the Roadsters. · Aluminum heads were introduced but were delayed on the early Coupes due to manufacturer fine-tuning. However, all of the Roadsters were equipped with the new heads. · A revised steering wheel was added. It was thicker and provided a softer grip.
