RACING mogul Shigeaki “Shige” Hattori competed in the IndyCar and NASCAR racing circuits before retiring without a scratch – but ironically, a civilian crash caused his death!
-
The 61-year-old native of Japan, who became one of NASCAR's most beloved racing team owners after retiring from competition in 2005, was driving on Highway 73 in Huntersville, N.C., on April 5 when his Toyota crossed a center line and struck an oncoming SUV. The collision killed Hattori instantly, but investigators determined he wasn't speeding and wasn't impaired.
His shocking death has rocked the tight-knit NASCAR community.

ROCK ON!
PHIL DANIELS plays a restless London youth in the 1979 British movie Quadrophenia, based on the Who's rock opera - but oddly, the chaotic production was not a musical, and the Who does not even appear in it! The lead was supposed to go to JOHN LYDON - better known as Johnny Rotten of notorious punk band the Sex Pistols - but the film's distributors thought he was too dicey a personality to insure. Nevertheless, production did not go smoothly. The Who's legendary drummer, KEITH MOON, died during filming, and a brawl scene in the seaside city of Brighton used two real- life rival gangs, resulting in a \"real riot - health and safety didn't come into it,\" according to Daniels.
