If you want the scoop on spins, heed the advice of IRL IndyCar® Series driver
Dan Wheldon.
The Andretti Green Racing competitor, who was runner-up to teammate Tony Kanaan
in the championship race this year, gives the lowdown on smoking his tires -
with flair - in the January issue of Maxim. The magazine arrives on newsstands
Dec. 20.
"If you plan to win, you must know how to do a proper spin," Wheldon said Dec.
16 while waiting to tape scenes for the ABC-TV show "Extreme Makeover" that will
air in the spring.
A few pointers from the feature:
. Find a place with plenty of space and gravel.
. The increased benefit of added gas? Lots of smoke.
. Hand gestures are grand. Eye contact is primo.
Where did he pick up the stylish spin game plan?
"I've had practice through the years," said Wheldon, who has plans to move into
his new St. Petersburg, Fla., home in mid-January.
