Enge to race at Motegi for Cheever
According to Autosport Enge is to race at Motegi for Cheever. I'm not a subscriber so I can't say if it is another car which is likely as Cheever is starting to like his team and enjoying racing quite a bit again and also you tend to see entries preparing for Indy at Motegi usually....

Cheever filed 2 entries for Indy and according to some quotes from earlier this month, he plans that his motegi driver and second Indy driver will drive the rest of the races from indy on in the 51. Of course, he could decide to stick with 2 teams for the rest of the year or Enge might only be on board for just Motegi and Indy if Cheever feels like finishing out the season as a single-car team.

Cheever's been a pleasant surprise so far, I didn't expect him to still be on the pace, but realistically Enge would be able to turn in a better season overall. Either way, the Indy field is looking really strong.

There is still some way to go until the Indy 500 enties reach "pant wettingly exciting" levels of pre-1996, but it's getting better.

Cheever looks set to run Max Papis at the Indy 500. But Papis has also contacted Vision.

Official site confirms Enge will drive inplace of Cheever at Motegi.
Good to see Enge back in IRL, he was performing remarkably well late last season. |
