With all the excitement about the recently launched Metro Line, The Hollywood Reporter decided to send its staff on a race from DTLA to Santa Monica to see which means of transportation would fare the fastest.

Baum stole the win via car, but Elby was a close second finishing a mere 4 minutes later. For the full play by play, head over to The Hollywood Reporter.
