Taking a break from filming the show we all know and love, Grey's Anatomy star Patrick Dempsey pursued his #1 off-screen passion - auto racing! The actor took part in the Rolex 24 at Daytona International Speedway Saturday in Daytona Beach, Fla.
He came in at No. 35 - but he's 34 spots better in our minds!
For more of the show's leading man off the set of the medical drama, check out our gallery of Patrick Dempsey photos. If you prefer him in scrubs, we've got McDreamy pictures, as well!

Well, there were 14 cars that finished behind him, but even if he came in last, bet he looked best!

look at that yummilicious hair!!

I definitely think he looks better with his hair a little bit messed up rather than having every strand in place =)

He does look better with his hair messed up! i get so scared when he races though! im scared he is going to get hurt and then he won't be able to be on Grey's anatomy anymore! i would be soo sad if he got hurt! wow i feel really stupid!

Without makeup and with that haircut he looks as his cousin.

Yeah!! I live in Daytona. :] My friend who used to work at the Speedway got me a bunch of pictures of him. =D
He was supposedly spotted at our local Target, and I'm kicking myself for not going to get more conditioner last week! Hahaha.
And... I'm also pissed that the speedway didn't give me that job I applied for at the beginning of February. D;
