Team Scandia was a short-lived Americanauto racing team that competed in theIndy Racing League between 1996 and 1999, also entering the1998 NASCAR Cup and the24 Hours of Daytona on three occasions.
The team traces its origin to whenAndy Evans bought much ofDick Simon Racing fromDick Simon during the1996 IRL season. As such, Simon was listed as the owners of some of Scandia's cars in the1996 Indianapolis 500; in which the team fielded a record 7 cars. The team tried to achieve a similar feat with five cars in the1997 Indy 500, but with higher expenses brought by new chassis, the venture was less successful. Later that season, the team captured its only IRL victory with a car driven byEliseo Salazar atLas Vegas Motor Speedway. The team shut down in1999 due to lack of sponsorship after scaling back heavily from1998 onwards.
