    RIP

    He'll only need slicks. It never rains in heaven.

    Sad day. Glad his suffering is over.

    His greatest achievement in his own words was when he...

    earned a spot on Richard Nixon's enemies list -- "the highest single honor I've ever received," he said.

    Humanitarian, actor, race car driver, team owner, business owner, what a storied career. I loved his movies, he drove like crazy and lived a full life.

    Godspeed.

    I had the good fortune of meeting him once when he was racing in the Runoffs at Road Atlanta. A true gentleman and a racer to the core.

    R.I.P. Paul. You were a pretty good actor (loved ya in "The Sting") and (IMO) an even better race car driver (some of it in a Ferrari), not to mention a great humanitarian. I'm going downstairs to eat a "Fig Newman" in your honor.
