RIP
Died yesterday at age 83.
We must have been typing at the same time. Newman was such an important figure in motorsports as well as acting. He will be sorely missed.
RIP Paul Newman
Just got a text that he passed.
RIP
He will be missed. :'(
Surely with all of the good things he's done for Hollywood, motorsports, and those less fortunate, there should be a way to repay him.
RIP Paul.

RIP Mr. Newman. A great guy!
Lucky enough to have once played basketball with him many, many years ago.
Big, big bummer. Met him at Road Atlanta mid 80's - way cool guy and easy to talk to. Had he spent the years racing he spent acting he'd have been just as good a racer as he was an actor. And he did pretty damn well on the track as it was.
He'll be missed. :'( :'( :'(

Great man... used his fame and fortune to live life like a regular person. Helped and started charities, and loved to go fast. History will remember him kindly as well it should. We lost a good one but he won't be forgotten. RIP
goodbye, sir.
may heaven have a race track, and may you be the fastest man on it [thumbsup]
My Lord, whatever I done, don't strike me blind for another couple of minutes.
Truly a sad day.
RIP, Paul Newman

I've caught myself feeling quite sad all day long thinking of Mr. Newman.
Guess I didn't realize earlier the impact he had on society.

Robin Miller has an excellent write up on the speedtv website. These stories are some of the best characterizations of a quintessential racer, car guy, philanthropist, actor, and celebrity.
