Crew changes at Cheever Racing.

Red Bull Cheever Racing General Manager Richard Caron recently made these organizational changes for the rest of the season, starting with the Bombardier ATV Copper World Indy 200 on March 17 at Phoenix International Raceway:

- Owen Snyder III will be the chief mechanic for the No. 52 Red Bull Cheever Racing Dallara/Infiniti/Firestone driven by rookie Tomas Scheckter. Snyder, who joined the team in 1997, was formerly the chief mechanic for Eddie Cheever Jr.

- Paul Burgess will be the race engineer for the No. 52 car driven by Scheckter. Burgess was the race engineer for Cheever at the season-opening 20th Anniversary Grand Prix of Miami on March 2. He joined the team this year as technical director.

- Dave Meehan will be the chief mechanic for the No. 51 Red Bull Cheever Racing Dallara/Infiniti/Firestone driven by Cheever. Meehan was the chief mechanic of the No. 52 car at Miami. He joined the team in 2001.

- Len Paskus will be the race engineer for the No. 51 car driven by Cheever. Paskus was the race engineer for the No. 52 car at Miami. He joined the team this year.

"After reviewing our performance at Homestead-Miami Speedway, we decided that we needed to mix things up a little in the team," Caron said. "Owen has done a phenomenal job working with Eddie, but we feel his Indy Racing experience would be more valuable in training our young, rookie driver Tomas. Paul Burgess, as the race engineer, works well with Owen, so they will both move to the No. 52 Red Bull Cheever Racing Infiniti.

"Len Paskus and Dave Meehan, who both joined Cheever Racing in the past year, have proven to be remarkable new talent. Eddie has the experience in this group, but some fresh ideas from this pair will help revitalize the crew of the No. 51 Red Bull Cheever Racing Infiniti."
