Curt Cignetti, who coached Indiana to its first national title in football, will drive the honorary pace car at the Indianapolis 500. Race organizers made the announcement Tuesday night during the World Baseball Classic championship game. Cignetti will drive a Chevrolet Corvette ZR1X at “The Greatest Spectacle in Racing” on May 24. The Hoosiers made an incredible leap during Cignetti’s first two seasons, going from the losingest Football Bowl Subdivision program in history to the first major college football team to finish 16-0 since the 1890s.
