#JohnVonNeumann

John Von Neumann (Vienna, December 16, 1921 - California, December 24, 2003) was one of the most significant figures of the American early post-war sports car era. Along with two others, he founded the California Sports Car Club in 1947. He raced and won a lot of events and provided rides for some of America’s best road racers, including Phil Hill, Ken Miles and Richie Ginther. Von Neumann helped bring Ferraris and Porsches to racing prominence, while his company, Competition Motors, distributed Porsches and VWs in the west.
