From the ice to the track!
Olympic figure skater Adam Rippon took the ride of a lifetime during Honda’s “Fastest Seat in Sports” event at the Honda Indy in Toronto.
At his first IndyCar race, the “Dancing With The Stars” alum rode two laps with fellow “DwtS” Mirror Ball champion and three-time Indianapolis 500 winner Helio Castroneves.
After riding in the back of Castroneves’ two-seater at over 150 mph, Rippon admitted: “I definitely feel like my nuts are in my stomach.
“This is a little bit like how I drive to the grocery store. A little bit more intense, but Helio is killing it.”

Since his sporting achievements, Rippon has guest-starred on “Will & Grace” and appeared in Taylor Swift’s “You Need To Calm Down” music video.
