Speed World Challenge Champion Racing RS6 next season

[Rave Racer]

    If you're asking if the car is for the series, could be.  Mosport is
owned by Panoz, but the track is sponsored by Audi so all the pace cars were
either A4's, S4's, or the odd TT.  Even with series that had other sponsors.
If there was an S6 I never saw it.  That's not to say there wasn't one.  The
Grand Am series is sponsored by Ford, so I'm guessing they'll be using their
pace cars for all the tracks that don't have a brand sponsorship.  At least
I think that's how it works.  For the upcoming ALMS season, I don't know who
the brand sponsor for the series is.  Of course last year it was Audi, this
may change with the alleged tentative drop of Audi from factory support.  Do
you remember what track you saw that RS6 pace car at?  You may be able to
look up on the web to see what that track is using as their sponsor, if they
have one.
