Great driver who happened to also have done some pretty great films too. The guy was a class act and did a ton of great charity work.Somebody that is good at photoshop should do a Newman-Sharp inspired red white and blue one.
I think McQueen was a poseur compared to Newman. McQueen only raced at Le Mans in a movie. Newman finished first in class and second overall there when he was 54 years old.Some people would maybe disagree with me, but I rank Paul Newman up there with Steve McQueen. Definitely one of the greats.
Wasn’t he planning on racing Le Mans? I think the movie big wigs wouldn’t allow him to compete due to the dangers.I think McQueen was a poseur compared to Newman. McQueen only raced at Le Mans in a movie. Newman finished first in class and second overall there when he was 54 years old.
Not sure, but Newman put acting on the back burner to go racing and competed well into his ‘70s.Wasn’t he planning on racing Le Mans? I think the movie big wigs wouldn’t allow him to compete due to the dangers.

I watched Newman several times in his 280ZX Turbo racing at Riverside Raceway back then under SCCA's series, he was a focused top notch race car driver, on winner's circle often.Not sure, but Newman put acting on the back burner to go racing and competed well into his ‘70s.
