"I'm gradually retiring from racing," Paul Newman, then a spry 73, said in 1998. "It's been difficult for me to give it up." How true. Newman turns 75 on January 26, and plans to celebrate by racing a Porsche next month at Daytona, where last year's average speed at the 500 was 161 mph. Although Newman crashed into a tire barrier at a January 6th practice, injuring his ribs, he won't quit. The accident? "I got over confident on a fresh set of tires."
