Danny Way Racing Through Long Beach

by The Editors on April 1, 2009

03-26-09-01.JpgThis year’s celebrity skateboarder for the Long Beach Grand Prix Toyota Pro/Celebrity race is Danny Way (Bucky Lasek won the event in 2006). Already the Las Vegas line is picking him to win against stars like Adrien Brody, Keanu Reeves, Raven-SymonĂ©, Alex Trebek, and P-Diddy’s butler Bentley.

As the world’s longest-running and most prestigious celebrity racing event, the Toyota Pro/Celebrity Race has introduced more than 500 celebrities to the sport of real race car competition. Pitting popular personalities against professional racers, the 10-lap sprint around the 1.97-mile downtown Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach street circuit gives celebrities the chance to put the pedal to the metal from behind the wheel of race-ready Scion tCs.

Too bad about the cars, though.
