Mark and Helio at the races
April 19, 2010
As Mark Wahlberg geared up to be the grand marshal at the Grand Prix of Long Beach race on April 18, In Touch caught up with him at the Izod IndyCar Series Party, where he was having a blast celebrating the race at the Hot Wheels-sponsored event. “I’m like a kid again,” he told In Touch. “I get all the toys I couldn’t afford to get in my childhood.” Mark’s kids are also getting into the racing spirit and enjoying the toys that come along with it: “My oldest son has a ’65 Mustang Hot Wheels car, but I love all the old muscle cars… I’m buying all that stuff and playing with them with my kids.” Race car driver and Dancing With the Stars season five champ Helio Castroneves was also taking part in the festivities. Helio told us how Hot Wheels got him hooked on racing: “I’m a big-time fan. I still have my Hot Wheels, believe it or not. I think the passion for Hot Wheels was where it all started. I was so young and to be interested in racing. Hopefully some of these young kids now will be the future generation.”
