Five weeks ago, Lenigan could not sleep and got up at 3 in the morning to make a coffee. According to Lennigan, when his heart stopped, he went down the stairs. Leangan fell, broke his neck and a gash remained on his head. Somehow, it helped restart the heart and the industrialist coming from the southern suburbs of Chicago was shifted to the hospital.

After the 2007 season, he sold his interest in the victory and joined the Newman/Haas racing, renamed as Newman/Haas/Lenngan Racing. The team turned into an indic -car series in 2008 after the Champor and Indicar’s alliance. The Lenigan team owner became a close friend with actor Paul Newman, and was the last to meet him on September 26, 2008 before his son died.
