Scott Dixon
Winner of the 92nd Running of the Indy 500IndyCar driver Scott Dixon had better make room on his crowded trophy shelf because this past weekend he won the biggest event in all of racing, the 92nd running of the Indianapolis 500. Driving the #9 Target car for Chip Ganassi Racing, Dixon was on the pole to start the race, and 200 laps later he took the checkered flag in the exact same position, winning his first Borg-Warner Trophy in the process. Dixon is a former IndyCar and Indy Lights Series Champion, and has earned 84 starts, 12 wins and 11 poles since debuting in the IRL in 2003. Pete Lee

Self described as an adorable, smart mouth with a 12th grade vocabulary, Lee is constantly pursuing acting work along with his ever expanding stand-up career. He’s appeared in television commercials for McDonalds and Michelob and also had a role in the film A Prairie Home Companion. Pete on Facebook and twitter.

A native of Cleveland, OH, Ryan Dalton discovered after graduating from college that the entertainment industry might be right for him because it was one of the few places where a basic lack of knowledge on any subject is not only necessary, but also embraced. He uses standup comedy as a way to poke fun at controversy and the “everyday personal injustices” that are dealt with by the common man. He also tries to defend the common woman whenever possible.
