Keanu Reeves Makes His Racecar Driver Debut

Keanu Reeves went from one of America’s favorite actors to racecar driver in one weekend.

Reeves qualified 31st out of 35 cars to enter the race on Saturday at the Toyota GR Cup.     Reeves spun his car a little more than halfway through the 45-minute race at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, sliding across the grass without a collision on the exit of Turn 9 with 21 minutes remaining.  He then re-entered the race and managed to finish 25th.

Reeves drove the number 92 BRZRKR car, which is promoting his graphic novel “The Book of Elsewhere.”
