Newman Wachs
Legendary actor and Champ Car team owner Paul Newman and fellow racer Eddie Wachs formed the team in early November of 2005.
NWR has 47 starts including 3 pole positions, 6 wins, 13 podiums, and 21 top-five finishes as of July 2009. Claiming wins for the team were Simona De Silvestro (2008), Jonathan Summerton (2008), and John Edwards (2009).

Newman Wachs Racing has re-signed Jonathan Summerton of Kissimmee, Florida, to the #34 car for the 2009 Cooper Tires presents the Atlantic Championship powered by Mazda 2009 Season.

Team Bio
Based just outside of Chicago in Mundelein, Illinois, Newman Wachs Racing enters 2009 as its fourth full season of competition in the Cooper Tires Presents the Atlantic Championship Powered by Mazda.
The late Paul Newman and team owner, Eddie Wachs met when they both competed in the Can-Am series of the mid- 70s. Over the years the pair remained close and often talked about joining forces to create their own racing team. That moment came in late 2005 when the pair agreed the format of the Atlantic Championship met their objectives of creating a team built on the premise of creating opportunity for both aspiring young drivers and promoting causes.

In less than four years, Newman Wachs Racing has assembled an organization with a strength-of-depth that combines for over 200 years of top-level motorsports experience.

RLR Andersen Racing
In 2008 Andersen Racing will field multiple entries in 42 races in 19 states and provinces at some of the best facilities on the continent, including the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

Andersen Racing's principals, brother Dan and John Andersen, have extensive experience in series administration as well as team management. They've worked with many of today's top open-wheel stars, including several Indy 500 winners. They also understand the sport from a family perspective, as both of Dan Andersen's children raced in the past. Dan's son, Mike Andersen, is a three-time SCCA Formula Continental national champion.

Andersen Racing is headquartered at Andersen RacePark, an 18-acre facility it owns in Palmetto, Fla. that includes a 1-mile test track. This also showcases the team's efforts to always go one step beyond its competition, as even most teams in racing's major leagues do not own their own testing facility.

Ownership of a test track in sunny Florida greatly enhances Andersen Racing's testing program. Other teams in various series may rent the track for testing as the track's schedule permits. Andersen RacePark also hosts an active karting community. More information on the track is available at andersenracepark.com.
Andersen Racing is sponsored by Allied Building Products Corp.

Some of its past drivers include Ivan Capelli, Thiago Medeiros, Jimmy Vasser and Greg Ray.

Knapp also managed Team Menard in 1999 when it won the Indy Racing League championship. He was also the engineer for the pole-winning car at the 2000 Indy 500
