Eric Bachelart Born and raised in Belgium, Eric was one of the most promising and prominent junior open-wheel drivers in Europe in the 1980s. He was also an extremely diverse driver, compe ng in the stock car based ProCar Championship, the 24 hours of Le Mans, Formula 3000, Indy Lights, and eventually, CART and IRL. Arguably his biggest achievement was winning the 1991 Indy Lights Championship, a feat that truly put him on the US map as a superstar of the sport.
But driving wasn’t the be all, end all for Eric. He had a dream, a dream to run his own team in the US. Forsaking his life in Europe, Eric and his family made the big full- me move to the US in 1996 and started Conquest Racing. It was only a ma er of months before Eric had his first race car in the shop, an Indy Lights car that would compete in the 1997 Indy Lights Championship. The rest, as they say, is history.
Recently, Eric has been consul ng for Scuderia Corsa as their Managing Director with the goal of restructuring the organiza on. Back in Indianapolis now to manage the New Country Compe zione Ferrari Challenge program. In the midst of closing out the 2016 season with Scuderia Corsa, he is embarking on heading the establishment and management of New Country Compe zione, New Country Motor Car Group’s all new Ferrari Challenge race team. 3950 Guion Lane, Indianapolis, IN 46268 T: (317)870-0007 ( ext 34 ) | Cell: (317)691-6886 [email protected] www.conquestracing.com
