Jim posted a cool photo to the facebook page for Vintage Road Racing Archive, and brought up a mild debate... who were real race car drivers among known actors from Hollywood?

And let me start by saying in no particular order, with the reason that they were known to race cars on tracks, or events that consisted of planned courses recognized as serious racing. ( Baja for example, or dry lakes)

James Garner
Steve McQueen
Paul Newman
James Brolin
Patrick Dempsey
James Dean
Dick Smothers

and Tommy Ivo

Marc knows quite a lot about this plane, and shared in the comments that it was the 1st to go round the world with in-flight refueling, and the wings were damaged so badly during a landing that they were removed

Make what you can of this, but that very fuselage, or one just like it named the Lucky Lady, is at the Planes of Fame museum in Chino. http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2013/06/a-quick-look-at-planes-of-fame-museum.html
