Recently GTChannel was invited to attend the premiere of Adam Carolla's documentary film Winning The Racing Life of Paul Newman at the El Capitan Theater in Hollywood. Like any other night in Hollywood, there were about 2 or 3 other premieres going on just down the street. But it was easy to tell which one was actually the Winning premiere as I pulled up to the Roosevelt Hotel where a "Red Carpet" event with some drinks was being held.
