One of the classiest men you'll ever meet. And wow did he love his racing.

I didn't mention in my other post for fear of the "Encounter" thread. But the answer is yes. I interviewed him most recently a year and a half ago at the last Grand Prix of Houston before the ChampCar/IndyCar merger.

LOL...I posted on that thread before I even ASKED you if you met him :)

Meeting Newman must be near the top of the encounter list...hopefully in your interview, there was not a failure to communicate.
