He drives! He dances! He wins at both!
Who knew? Helio Castroneves. Indy 500 winner – twice. He can move more than his hands and feet. (Thanks to Penske Racing for the photo.)
Dancing With the Stars has been fun to watch, and may have gotten a few extra viewers because of Helio. And boy did his website pimp the show and voting.
So who’s next? Can’t be the Nextel, er, Sprint Cup guys, the Chase is underway during the Dancing With the Stars Competition. Hey, does anyone know if Dario Franchitti can act? His wife can.
Speaking of the NASCAR boys, they had the what’s become a traditional drive around Manhattan this morning, taking off from the Good Morning America studio at Times Square. Right after Helio showed off his moves.
ESPN Classic will air the annual NASCAR Nextel (yea, still Nextel) Cup Awards at 9 p.m. Friday from the Waldorf-Astoria in New York City. Dr. Jerry Punch will emcee the onstage event (yippee, didn’t we love him during the season, he’s so exciting.) It will rebroadcast at midnight on the Deuce.
Funnyman David Spade and singer Kelly Clarkson will perform during the awards program.
I have this feeling the NASCAR awards show won’t be as exciting as Dancing With the Stars. Oh well, racecar drivers are racecar drivers, just some have diverse talents.

Shouldn't that be "alleged funnyman"? I don't know of anyone who says David Spade is funny.
