On Thursday, city workers removed the banners promoting stops on the “Dale Trail” from utility poles around Kannapolis. The self-guided tour, run by local tourism leaders, takes fans to sites tied to the late NASCAR star, including a bronze statue of Earnhardt in the center of town.

The billionaire is David Murdock, the Dole Food owner whose $1.5billion North Carolina Research Campus is transforming the former textile town into a center for science.

In a July 18 e-mail to the City Council, City Manager Mike Legg said the request to take down the banners came from Castle and Cooke, Murdock's development company, Legg wrote, and Castle and Cooke “is trying to put on the best face for the city” when Murdock comes to town this week with an unidentified special guest,"Presumed to be Oprah Winfrey"

“There are many (including everybody at Castle and Cooke and some others I have talked to) that do not want to see anything ‘Dale related' to go back up,” Legg wrote.
Murdock, who lives in California, typically is in Kannapolis at least monthly to oversee campus construction.

“We always spruce things up whenever Mr. Murdock comes to town and Kannapolis also is considering adopting a tagline suggested by Castle and Cooke on all its documents: “Home to Science.”

Hey I saw on the Daytona Speedway site, they have a special overnight parking ticket for Military. Anyone out there used this? My sister is former military and is trying to get info in the tickets, but her base has no info on it. She is going to call the speedway, but I wanted to get some feedback here. You guys give the best advice, from EXPERIENCE. Like the "free parking"....holy moly.....it's an awful wait afterward.....ANYhoo....any suggestions?

I'm hoping to meet some new people this year.

It's always fun to hang with more NASCAR fans and I figured I'd post to see if anyone was going. If you are let's meet up.

We stay at "Bernie's" Campground.

Hope to hear from you!!

Yep, we're really getting the ball rolling early, I know!
Anyhow, Richmond in Sept! I'm looking to have as many IPers meet up as we can get!! Everybody is welcome to stop by, even if just to say hi and put some faces to names!

For now though I'm trying to find out who all is planning on camping that weekend. Please send me an email at RichmondRace@yahoo.com if you are - I'd like to find out a little more information and see if you would be willing to host the party!!

For everybody else - let me know if you'll be there and want to meet up! We had a blast last year (check the pics and the blog on my page) and we hope it will be even bigger & better this time around!!
