Speaking of racing, VIP passes to the 93rd running of the Indy 500 certainly can cause your heart to do just that! Fever pitch excitement meets one of the oldest and most prestigious races in the world of motorsports. No wonder it's sometimes called "The Greatest Spectacle" in racing!
The Paul Newman name is probably Indy racing's most famous, ever since he took an interest in auto racing while filming the 1969 motion picture "Winning" in which he played the role of an Indy car driver. We give tribute to his philanthropic endeavors which have helped over 100,000 children with cancer, sickle cell anemia, HIV/AIDS, and many other conditions, who attend camps to experience the simple joys of childhood, without compromising any of their medical needs.
Hat's off! All tolled, this philanthropist's charitable legacy has raised over $200 million!
