series and soon after he was in the South African Formula Ford
Series where he posted two wins.
He had proven his speed in South African motorsports and was then off to Europe the following year where he entered the British Formula Vauxhall Junior series where he raced against the likes of Antônio Pizzonia
and Takuma Sato
. Scheckter earned third in the championship with one victory and one pole. He was also named series Rookie of the Year.
In 1999, Scheckter won the Formula Opel Euroseries championship with a record eight victories and eight poles, and in the process broke all the winning records previously set by Mika Häkkinen
, Rubens Barrichello
, and David Coulthard
. That success landed him a drive that same year in the last two races of the Formula Nissan championship which Fernando Alonso
had dominated that whole season. Even though Scheckter was with a new team for this brief stint in Formula Nissan, he captured a win, two poles and a second place position.
Scheckter moved on to the Formula 3 Series in 2000, and in his rookie year, he was the runner-up in the British Formula Three Championship with two victories and two pole positions, while contending again with drivers such as Takuma Sato
, Antônio Pizzonia
and Narain Karthikeyan
. He also had time to race in the prestigious Marlboro Masters F3 race at Zandvoort where he took the third podium position. To complete his year, he competed in the final four races of the FIA Formula 3000 Championship, finishing second at Hockenheim
behind future IRL teammate Tomáš Enge
. He also raced in the Open Telefonica by Nissan
, finishing as championship runner-up.
Scheckter was signed as a test/reserve driver by Jaguar
for the 2001 Formula One season
, but was soon let go after a misunderstanding with being charged with "curb crawling
."
Tomas was signed to drive for Eddie Cheever
's Red Bull
Cheever Racing
in the IndyCar Series
for the 2002 season
. He was the Indianapolis 500
co-Rookie of the year (with 4th placed Alex Barron) after leading 85 laps of the race. However, Cheever soon grew tired of Scheckter's frequent crashes, and looked to replace him with Buddy Rice
. At Michigan International Speedway
, Cheever was forced to race Scheckter due to contractual obligations, but gave Rice the best equipment and crew. In a memorable race, Scheckter beat Rice by inches for his first IRL win, while team owner Cheever crashed out. However, he was soon gone from Team Red Bull.
In 2003 he moved to Target
Ganassi Racing with mixed results, often being criticized for his inconsistency and frequency of crashing, finishing well behind title winning teammate Scott Dixon
.
In 2004 he moved to Panther Racing
to replace double champion Sam Hornish, Jr.
. In 2004 and 2005 Scheckter and Panther were the dominant Chevrolet
powered team, greatly outpacing other teams powered by what many considered the weakest engine in the series. Scheckter broke through a horrendous string of bad luck, defeating Hornish to win the Bombardier Learjet 500
at Texas Motor Speedway
in June 2005 for his second career victory.
In mid-2005, Scheckter was announced as one of the drivers for A1 Team South Africa
in the inaugural A1 Grand Prix
series. He raced in the rounds at EuroSpeedway Lausitz
and Estoril
.
In 2006
, Scheckter drove for Tony George
and Patrick Dempsey
's Vision Racing
alongside teammate Ed Carpenter and finished 10th in points.
In 2007
Scheckter again raced for Vision Racing sponsored by Joost
. The South African was one of the few drivers that year to challenge the Team Penske, Andretti Green Racing
and Target Chip Ganassi Racing
drivers on a regular basis during races, on occasion leading the race. He ultimately finished 10th in points for the second season in a row with a best finish of 5th.
For the 2008 season, Scheckter was scheduled to race for Luczo Dragon Racing in 3 races: Kansas, Indianapolis and Infineon. Despite not finishing at Kansas or Indy, Scheckter's runs gave the team additional race time at Texas, Detroit, and Chicagoland. Scheckter failed to return any good results in the additional races despite qualifying well. He did not return to the team in 2009, as it became a full time team with 2008 Indy Lights champion Raphael Matos
. Scheckter was reported to be joining Beck Motorsports, now renamed Team 3G, starting at the 2009 Long Beach race, but the deal never materialized. Scheckter personally secured sponsorship from Mona Vie which he shopped to a number of teams, ultimately signing with Dale Coyne Racing
for a second week program. He qualified 26th and finished 12th. Later in the 2009 season he returned with the Mona Vie sponsorship with Dreyer & Reinbold Racing
sharing the #23 car with Milka Duno
, who brought her own sponsorship, as well as driving a third car, the #43, in select races.
In 2010 Scheckter once again brought Mona-Vie to Dreyer & Reinbold Racing to drive the #23 car in the Indianapolis 500. Tomas had a great race, and was in the top for the majority of the race. In the last 20 laps a fuel mileage problem forced Scheckter to conserve fuel and he dropped back to finish 12th. Scheckter's teammate Mike Conway suffered a leg injury in a terrible crash at the Indianapolis 500 and Scheckter was hired to fill in for Conway at Texas and Iowa finishish 15th and 19th at each. Later in the year he was hired to drive for Conquest Racing at Chicago and Kentucky. Scheckter finished 28th at Chicago, but after having a surprisingly quick time in practice and qualifying he was accidentally hit from behind by Alex Lloyd in the first ten laps and made contact with the wall that ended his day. At Kentucky Scheckter struggled getting the car up to speed and finished 14th.
For 2011 Tomas Scheckter has just announced that he will join KV-SH Racing and drive the #7 Team Redline Extreme car in the Indianapolis 500. KV-SH is a partnership between Jimmy Vassar and Kevin Kalkhoven's KV Racing Technology and James "Sulli" Sullivan and T.J Humphreys', SH Racing. Scheckter was also the first entry in this Centennial 500. Scheckter will be teammates with Tony Kanaan, Takhuma Sato and EJ Viso.
