Scheckter first signing for Indy 500

Scheckter first signing for Indy 500

30 March 2011

Tomas Scheckter is the first driver to sign up for this year’s Indianapolis 500, which will be taking place at the legendary Speedway on 29 May. The South African will be entering with the #7 Team Redline car, which is a joint effort between SH Racing and KV Racing Technology.





“Walking through KV’s shop, they have a lot of things together,” 30-year-old Scheckter commented. “Obviously, with Tony (Kanaan) joining that brings a very high level to the team and a lot of expectations.




“I’m looking forward to a quick car at the Speedway, where I’ve come close a number of times to winning, but coming close and winning is two different things.




“At this stage of my career, putting myself with a good organisation like this, I really do feel like I have a shot at winning this race.”
