One relationship that has been even steadier and more reliable than Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie is the relationship between celebrities and automobiles. Whether they're athletes, actors or musicians, our celebrities seem constantly fascinated by fancy or expensive cars – especially if they go fast. Many of our celebrities love collecting luxury cars, but once a year there's an event that gives a handful of them the chance to drive one.<\/p>\n

As part of Toyota<\/a>'s 40th Annual Grand Prix of Long Beach weekend, 15 stars from sports, music and movies<\/a> will have the chance to climb behind the wheel of custom race-outfitted Scion<\/a> FR-S cars to compete in the 2014 Toyota Pro\/Celebrity Race. Celebrities will be competing against professional drivers in a 1.97-mile street course through Long Beach, the official press release stated. Among the field of celebrity speedsters are actors Adrien Brody and Sam Witwer, radio host Lisa Stanley and Olympic gold medal sprinter Carmelita Jeter.<\/p>\n

Celebs and pros alike are taking to the track to support the "Racing For Kids" program aimed at raising money for children's hospitals nationwide. The race has been run since 1991, and in that time over $2 million has been donated to children's hospitals around the U.S. on behalf of the generous racers.<\/p>\n

If you're looking to rekindle your love for the automobile, head to NJ State Auto Auction<\/a>. There are hundreds of Carfax-certified cars on the lot, and the in-house finance department is available to help you afford the used car you love.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
