Farewell Mister Newman

It is sad to hear of the death of Paul Newman.

It's a great shame and a great loss.

:(

we will miss you paul newman thank you for everyone you did for racing,
we shall see you again some day, in a better place

That's sad news, I just heard of it minutes ago from local TV.

R.I.P. Pablo Nuevohombre !

Would it be possible to change the thread title to one with a little class?

I can't think of anyone more selfless in their celebrity, or not even wanting anything to do with it.

A great man and a great friend to racing, this is a huge loss.

RIP PLN

It is a very loss to us all and motorsport, thanks all those years you support racing.

Thanks for all you did. A life well lived Mr. Newman.

R.I.P.

Hell, he's a natural-born world-shaker."

Nice touch Rex. That choked me up.

Never mentioned in scandal rags. A class act from a bygone era. He set a standard for his brothers and sisters I've seen few match.

An award winning actor with a list of movie credits that are second to none. With his celebrity he brought instant star power to CART as an owner. He was also one of those rare beasts -- a gentleman racer who had legitimate speed. And last but certainly not least, he was generous, a philanthropist with a heart of gold.
