I am truly saddened by Paul Newman's passing...I had the pleasure of seeing several interviews with him where he spoke at length about his passion for cars. I was also incredibly impressed by the fact that he was still driving racing cars well into his 70s. I also understand he was a major reason for the renovation of Virginia International Raceway outside Danville VA which he described as "a gorgeous ribbon of road in the countryside"...I would have to agree with him as did the track proprietors who I had the pleasure of speaking with personally on one occasion. They remembered Mr Newman well and spoke proudly about his prowess in the cockpit.
He was truly a rare breed and a class act...he shall be sorely missed.

I never knew him but I didn't know he play as Hudson Hornet in Cars movie. Now, Cars 2 will be in 2010 or 2011 I don't remember. I guess they will dump Hudson Hornet or find other actor either.
