Sat Oct 05 19:01:00 UTC 2024: ## Hollywood Star Keanu Reeves Spins Off Track During Racing Debut
**Indianapolis, Indiana** – Hollywood actor Keanu Reeves made his professional motor racing debut at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway on Saturday, competing in the Toyota GR Cup. While he avoided a major crash, the 60-year-old star spun off the track on the exit of turn nine, midway through the 45-minute race. Despite the incident, Reeves was able to regain control and finish the race in 25th place out of 35.
Reeves, known for his roles in “The Matrix” and “Speed,” started the race in 31st place and even managed to climb as high as 21st before the spin. He partnered with fellow celebrity driver Cody Jones from the popular YouTube series “Dude Perfect.”
The Toyota GR Cup is a spec-racing series run in conjunction with the Indy 8 Hour sports car event. Reeves was driving the No. 92 BRZRKR car, promoting his graphic novel “The Book Of Elsewhere.”
The actor, who is a known motorsports enthusiast, is no stranger to racing. He previously competed in the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach celebrity race, winning the event in 2009. He is scheduled to participate in a second race on Sunday.
Reeves will also be celebrating the 30th anniversary of “Speed” this week, attending a special screening with co-star Sandra Bullock on Tuesday.
