After a decade plus racing F2000 cars and an outrageously fun 2016 season competing in the Cooper Tires USF2000 Championship, team co-owners Brendan Puderbach and Charles Finelli made the next step on the Road to Indy Presented by Cooper Tires in 2017 and joined the Indy Pro 2000 Championship. FatBoy Racing! Has a long history in motorsports but is a different sort of animal in the Road to Indy paddock.

As career gentlemen racers, The FatBoys! have focused on having fun while competing with many young talented drivers and team members. Amazingly the team has had the privilege of seeing many of these up-and-comers go on to have impressive careers in all facets of motorsport, ranging from becoming the next generation of team support staff and media personalities to even a select few who've raced in the Indy 500. With 2018 being a transitional year, the team is looking forward to an eventful 2019 season and hopes to be part of the championship and the Road to Indy for many years to come.

Prominent karting and junior formula team Jay Howard Driver Development (JHDD) will join the Road to Indy Presented by Cooper Tires on a full-time basis in 2019. Led by IndyCar Series and Indianapolis 500 veteran Jay Howard, who himself has won championships in both USF2000 and Indy Lights, the team’s expansion furthers its mission of advancing drivers from the karting ranks to junior open-wheel categories.

The Indy Pro 2000 Championship Presented by Cooper Tires checks the third rung of the ladder off the list for Howard, who claimed the USF2000 championship in 2005 and added the Indy Lights title one year later. Howard has driven for several teams over the years, including Schmidt Peterson Motorsports, Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing and Sarah Fisher Racing, and most recently competed in the 102nd Running of the Indianapolis 500.

Pabst Racing has been preparing winning race cars since 1983. The Pabst team was started by Augie Pabst Jr., former sports car racing legend from the 1950s and early 1960s who won many races and championships throughout his career. Current President Augie Pabst III (a former driver as well) took over the business in 1991. By 1998 Augie III decided to focus on owning and maintaining a wide variety of winning racecars including SCCA Spec Racer, Shelby Can-Am, 911 Porsche, Ford Mustang GT-1 and primarily Van Diemen Formula 2000 cars.

Winners of the 2017 and 2018 USF2000 team championship, Pabst Racing will field squads in both the USF2000 Championship and the Indy Pro 2000 Championship Presented by Cooper Tires in 2019.
