As 47-year-old race car driver Helio Castroneves chases a record-breaking fifth Indy 500 win, he’s relying on his American Coach RV to help him and his team get ready for race day. An American Eagle® motorhome from American Coach has been part of Castroneves’ racing life since 2015.
“At the track, my American Coach is my home,” says Castroneves. “It’s where I relax before races and where my family makes their home base when they come to the track. My American Eagle is designed just the way I like it and has everything I need to prepare for race day.”
Castroneves is a two-time American Coach owner and worked closely with the American Coach team to tailor the RV to meet his specific needs. On the exterior, Castroneves’ motorhome boasts a customized finish of glossy black with bold red accents.
On the interior, he moved the location of the kitchen and specified white cabinetry for a fresh, contemporary look. The rest of the coach features modern, teak-style cabinetry. For his daughter and her friends, Castroneves wanted ultra-comfortable custom bunk beds so each bunk has its own TV and an electric shade that can be lowered for privacy.
Other luxury amenities include: massaging captain’s chairs in the cab; heated tile flooring throughout; a full-size, residential stainless-steel refrigerator and special-order quartz countertops in the kitchen; 1½ baths; and a master suite with a king-sized bed, full bath with his-and-her vanities, walk-in waterfall shower, wardrobe storage, and a stacked washer and dryer conveniently concealed in a closet.
The American Coach brand is part of REV Recreation Group, Inc., a manufacturer of Class A motorhomes, and a subsidiary of REV Group, Inc.
