Tomas Scheckter 2004 Indy 500 Move of Race

Tomas Scheckter passes SEVEN cars in one fell swoop entering turn 3 at Indy a few laps after a restart. This pass was actually setup a lap or two previous as the spotter at the time, Pancho Carter, told Tomas that traffic was starting to bunch up ahead of him and that he should get a nice opportunity to pick off quite a bit of them pretty quickly. Sure enough, he was right! One spotter in turn 3 claims this was pure idiocy, but I find this to be wonderful execution of planning, timing, and courage. Sadly, this was the only highlight of our day that year...

he was too agressive but he is starting to mellow out he was gonna win the 500 this year

i hear he's getting a full ride for 2009

The reason he's not full time is that his moments of genius are a bit rare - he lacks consistency

Wow. That happened right in front of me. That was I became a Tomas Schecter fan. I think he would have won the race this past week if not for the broken shaft. HE DESERVES A HIGH QUALITY FULL TIME RIDE!

WOW, I forgot that! He picked off 5 cars in just a few seconds. Sheckter has enough talent to win this year, he just needs some luck.

I think he just wrecked too many cars, although in recent years he's crashed alot less. He's an incredible talent. Isn't this the year panther had the worst luck ever and they had like 10 DNFs.

Don't know why he isn't full-time this year, but if someone gets injured (or fired), I wouldn't be surprised if Scheckter got the call.

I thought he was going to clip the wall exiting the turn but he didn't... Great move.
