„His personal racing resume includes a class win at the 24 Hours of Daytona (in celebration of his 70th birthday), a second overall at Le Mans in 1979, Trans-Am victories, and multiple SCCA regional and national championships. He once owned a Can-Am team, and he's the Newman in Newman-Haas Racing, which has six CART/Champ Car championships to its credit. Paul Newman is the actor's car guy, and the car guy's actor. Some combination.“

„Whenever there's an open seat in a professional class, Mazda drivers in the lower classes get the first shot. Last year, the automaker also rewarded Star Mazda champ Adrian Carrio with a $100,000 scholarship in the hope of securing a seat in the 2007 Champ Car Atlantic series. And SCCA Spec Miata champ Andrew Caddell was given a new MX-5 and MazdaSpeed parts to build an MX-5 Cup car for 2007.“

Turtle Wax, Neil Tjin bring custom Skyline sedan to U.S. (#)

„Yes thanks, I watch F1 regularly as I live in Europe where we have real motorsport that consists of slightly more than driving around in circles… This of course requires brains and skill as the courses have corners, which is why legends like Nigel Mansell can win F1 and Champs car is consecutive seasons, but Champ car drivers last all of one race before being dropped from the team or crashing every single race.“

„Thoroughly refreshed in 2006, the '07 9-5 gets few revisions and doesn't really need them. Powered by a turbocharged and intercooled 260-horsepower/258 pound-feet torque 2.3-liter inline four, the 3,730-pound SportCombi with five-speed automatic isn't especially svelte but carries its weight like a champ. Turbo lag is present but not prevalent, and torque steer is virtually non-existent unless you romp full-throttle from a stop.“
