Pace car speed in NASCAR is 45-60 mph, with pre-start getting around 100 mph before letting them go. Fast, but hardly flat out in a sports car. The point was that at those speeds that normal people drive regularly, it is very slow on a track built for high speeds.

My bad for assuming NASCAR was similar to F1. I didn't realize pace speed was so low
