the celebrity racing reality show, "Fast Cars & Superstars -
Gillette Young Guns Celebrity Race." The next episode will air
SUNDAY, JUNE 17 (8:00-8:30 p.m., ET/PT) on ABC. In the fourth episode,
Gillette Young Gun Ryan Newman and the Superstars threw the Alltel car
around the track like a wild dog thrashing a rag-doll. Gabrielle Reece
performed an incredible save after losing control and spinning out in the
grass; William Shatner barely kept the car on the track, and Coach Bill
Cowher earned the nickname "Crash" when he slammed into the wall
at 151 mph. In this most eventful group, it was William Shatner who was
eliminated in controversial circumstances, disqualified for unsafe
driving.
