Not sure the differences between 2000 and 2002 but in 2002 this was possible. I will do a little more research this weekend if I get time but like I said the above thread should give you start.

Found this on GM Heritage website. Hope it helps some.

2000

The two thousand model year brought several cosmetic changes to Camaro. The aluminum wheels – both 16” and 17" were restyled to give Camaro a fresh look. Interior fabrics were revised as were interior colors. A new color, Monterey Maroon, was introduced...and all colors were renamed to feature “descriptive” names. Once again, Camaro was used extensively at raceways country-wide as festival cars or pace cars – including 50 white Camaro SS convertibles which were used at the Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis. Berger Chevrolet in Grand Rapids, Michigan celebrated their 75th anniversary by offering 30 limited edition 375 horsepower Camaro SS’s to the public — bringing back the nostalgia of the late 60’s and the C.O.P.O. cars offered by Berger, Yenko, Fred Gibbs, Nickey, Dana, and Baldwin Motion. GMMG of Atlanta, Georgia – and GMMG owner, Matt Murphy worked to produce limited edition cars for Berger, as well as Dale Earnhart Chevrolet – Tom Henry Chevrolet – Hot Rod magazine -- and Carl Black Pontiac (Firebird) SS production soared to 8,913 units.
2000 Camaro production was 45,417.

What I could fine all cars came with the graphics then after the race and promotional use the graphics were supposed to be removed and cars sold. Most were removed and some survived with the graphics. So it is very likely you are looking at one of the 55 brickyard cars.


"This car still has its graphics. which originally was intended for use just on race day. then the graphics were to be removed and the car sold through the dealership after the race. with the only way to tell if it was special was to reference the VIN number. That year. there were 55 cars delivered to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. and as of this year. 16 are left with the original graphics."

All of the 2000 Brickyards were base model SS convertibles that were numbered 1 through 53 and had the graphics installed at the Speedway. If the car was used at Indy and doesn't have it's graphics, they were removed after the car left the track by either a dealer or owner. This is what a 2000 Brickyard looks like with the complete graphics package.

I believe the car you're referring to was in North Carolina and the "35" decal behind the rear plate is the track number given to the car. At one time, there also would have been a 35 decal in the lower left corner of the windshield.
