What race(s) did the SVX Pace Car perform in?

This came up between me and a buddy from work this weekend in a heated drunken debate. It seems I have lost. I called a few people, OT and YT, to search for answers. OT came up with the Daytona 500, YT and Mike came up with the Indy 500. Sadly, it's neither.

Here's a list of the Daytona 500 pace cars:

Here's a list of the Indy 500 pace cars:
http://www.indypacecars.com/faq.html#q3

The SVX is not on either list. When I searched for SVX pace car, it came up with nothing more than vague references. If someone could come up with the races that the SVX pace car performed in, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
