Reporter even though hes long retired from racing, every few weeks, Mario Andretti takes the wheel at racetracks around the country as part of the Mario Andretti racing experience. He and his fellow drivers give thrilling and, i can attest, somewhat terrifying rides to everyone from racing fans like greg likener of san jose. If you take a roller coaster and multiply it by five, that might be close, but theres no rails. Reporter to nba superstar stephan curry. Andretti is arguably the greatest racecar driver of all time. During his half century long career, it seems there was no car he couldnt tame. If you can make a tiger or something that can destroy you purr, youre a darn goode animal trainer. This is the same thing. You can make that car that can destroy you, make it purr, make it do the things you want it to do. Thats the appeal . Of course it is. Were back at daytona and the battle goes on. Reporter what always made andretti stand out from the pack was his versatility. He won on ovals, on road courses, and on dirt. You dont have them separated, categorized. Thats exactly right, because thats the way my career was. I would go from the grand prix of italy to the hoosier 100 to run at the fair grounds on a dirt track. Reporter he was named driver of is chentury. You got a catastrophy from hot whe trophy from hot wheels. That to me would be the pinnacle. Mario andrettis road began in italy, where the end of world war ii left his family in a refugee camp in lucca. The family didnt own a car, but he and his twin brother parked cars in a local garage. We were just testing some stuff, a little bit of burnouts, so thats how i learned my standing starts. Reporter note to self, always self park. When he wasnt abusing other peoples cars, he was at the movies watching racing, like in this film starring clark cable. And then when mario was 15, the andrettis came to america. They settled in nazareth, pennsylvania. Right after moving in, mario and aldo noticed a commotion nearby. Big lights maybe a mile away. It was at the fair grounds. All of a sudden a big explosion of engines. And aldo and i looked at each other and booked and followed the roar of the engines. And here was the dirt track. Reporter so this is where the noise came from that made you and your brother run. Yes. Reporter and when you got here you found . We found our future. Reporter the brothers cobbled together a racecar. And mario began building toward a family of his own. I met him when he was about 16 at a Holy Family Church dance. Reporter that was the start of a 56year and counting marriage to deanne andretti. He was already about motor sports . Oh, yes. I dont think he had anything else on his mind. Reporter he must have had Something Else on his mind because he started dating. Well, thats true. I said i hope i have the opportunity to become a race driver. From there on, ii never really had a plan b in my head. Reporter his sons and nephew followed him into racing. If you want to understand how competitive he is, consider the portland grand prix in 1986. Michael tries to pass his father. Look at him make that nice move. Three laps to the end, i get screams, michael is having fuel problems. Reporter the last lap came down to father and son. So i stood up on the seat and were coming down to the checkered flag. Coming off the corner, hes out of fuel. Here comes the finish line. I beat him by two inches. The closest indy car finish in history. We were on the podium and he was not happy. Somebody told him, michael, michael, its fathers day. Happy fathers day, dad. Reporter when your heard on the radio your sop is having problems, were you thinking, yes, yes. Dont tell him that. Reporter and youre thinking thats my husband and my son. Oh, yes. I used to hate when they were together on the track. Because neither one would give an inch. So its scary. Reporter scary doesnt begin to define auto racing. Im going to read you a list of names here. Red regal, judd larson, dick atkins, don branson, billy foster, ronnie peterson. Yeah. Thats the dark side of the sport obviously. These are some of my closest friends that i lost in the sport. Reporter this 1978 crash took the life of teammate ronnie peterson. When most of these men die, you already had kids. Did your wife say, youve got to stop doing this . No. I know what she was going through obviously, because we were going through it together. But t but she was such a rock for me and in so many ways she suffered in silence. I guess thats really what i did, yes. Reporter was there ever a moment where you thought ive got to tell him to stop this . No, because i knew what i was getting in for. You dont stop somebody if they have a real goal in life. Reporter did you ever think, i might have to end up raising these kids alone . Oh, i often thought of that, yeah. But its just the risk you take. Reporter andretti competed in almost 900 races, missing only two because of injury. He walked away from this triple somersault in indianapolis in 2003. You knew how competitive he was . Oh, yes, for sure. Reporter and still is . Uhhuh, yes. Reporter so you would think that just maybe in his eighth decade, Mario Andretti could be ready to put it in park, and indeed, you can sometimes find a more mellow mario at his winery in Californias Napa valley. Hoisting a glass of wine with the tourists. Thats great. When im here, when i bring the family here, it just replenishes my spirit. Theres something thats soothing. Not just the fact that you enjoy a couple of glasses. But this is really a labor of love. Reporter but then sunday comes. And mario is back at the track. His grandson marco is driving these days for the Andretti Team led by marios son, michael. Look in the pit and theres grandpa. Does marco want your advice . He takes it. I mean, i volunteer some advice. Reporter when he comes to see you race, does he come as your grand father or as a racing legend that might have advice . He comes as a grandfather. It kills me as much as it kills me when it doesnt go right. So to have that support definitely feels good. Reporter i would never use the word retired to describe you. So lets just say at this stage in your career, is there Something Special about race day . Race day is always a new day. When i was younger, i said some day im going to lose those butterflies. And i never did, from the first race to the last race, i had the same butterflies. You know why . Because it meant something to me. Reporter perhaps the best word to describe Mario Andretti driven. To you, does it feel like youre back in it suddenly when you get in the car . Always. Its my element. When they put me in the box, its going to have to have wheels on it. ,,,,,,,, theres a Restaurant Owner in california who nearly went bankrupt feeding needy kids and there was before tragedy struck. Steve hartman found his story on the road. All gone. Reporter last month, bruno cerato walked into the nightmare that used to be his dream. This is whats left of the white house restaurant in anaheim, california. Theres a picture with my mom on it. Reporter the picture of mom, pretty much everything he loved was in this restaurant. This is what it looked like before the electrical fire. During our first visit in 2010, that story was about this italian immigrant who catered to the rich and famous, just so he could feed the down and out. Every day, here at the local boys and girls club, some of the poorest children in anaheim had been eating from one of the most exclusive restaurants in town. At the time, bruno was giving away more meals than he was selling, and he was going broke. And you refinanced your house if yes. Reporter how can you keep feeding these kids . I cannot stop. Reporter and that devotion is what made this so devastating. This fire destroyed everything i worked for, for 30 years. It was like, we need to feed a kitchen somewhere, because we need to do the pasta for the children. Reporter unfortunately that mission was clearly over. Or so he thought. Until he got home, turned on his computer and learned what happens sometimes when really bad things happen to really good people. He got thousands of messages online and hundreds more in person. All of them offers to pitch in. Whatever i can do. Some kind of fundraiser. Any way we can help. Reporter and with that, the man who started serving all those kids on his own was alone no more.
