Keanu doing side quests

Keanu Reeves made his professional auto racing debut on Saturday at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway during the Toyota GR Cup, part of the Indy 8 Hour sports car event. 🏁😮

The 60-year-old Hollywood star spun out into the grass at Turn 9 midway through the 45-minute race but continued driving without injury.

Despite qualifying 31st out of 35 cars, Reeves briefly ran as high as 21st and finished 25th, successfully avoiding a crash on the first lap.

Driving the No. 92 BRZRKR car, which promotes his graphic novel ‘The Book of Elsewhere,’ Reeves has another race on Sunday.

Wait he actually raced? I heard about him in a sim racing league racing the Toyota GT86 but not in an actual race.
