Re: Critical Mass - Blind Man's Bluff = SPLIT THREAD
RAD2LTR, Will, For sure Paul Newman was a very good driver, I told many people after doing the "training" and the film "Winning" that if Paul had got interested in racing 10 years before doing the movie he would have been hard to beat at Indy. (or anyplace else) Working with him during the movie deal it was obvious that he had a lot of talent. Paul was quoted once that, "The first thing that I ever found I had any grace in was while training for and filming Winning!" He was one fine, nice man to work with. I will detail more about him soon, as I need to fill in the blanks of what I did after the "training" at Phoenix, and before the filming at Indy first to try to maintain continuity as much as I can. After my brother Dale called me a couple of days ago and filled me in on some things,that helped , but just a few minutes ago I was able to locate "Daring Darrell Dockery" after months of searching. It has been probably 15+ years since I have seen or heard from Darrell. We are going to meet for lunch in a few days, and then I can fill in more blanks from "the man on the moon" post forward. This is great news to me because input from brother Dale, and Darrell will fill in the blank spots in my memory of that period of time. I'm also going to ask brother Ron if he can add some to what all went on.
