The Holiday Inn and suites at the intersection of Hwy 378 and I-26 is our host hotel. They have some great rates for this event.

Photo Categorys
General
Stacy,
Unfortunately we do not have the ability to add photo categories with this web platform. It IS a feature we are very much interested in developing, but do not have the ability to do so at this time. That is why we ask photo contributers to properly tag their photos. All our moderation of photos is done by volunteers...primarily Robbie Solesbee who does an awesome job for us.
Thaks for your suggestions.

I do not know what the total donated has been but it has been over $2000.00 so far. Several folks donated through our paypal button here on the site and several more mailed donations to both me and Michael W Smith for Jimmy. There are a few more dollars and the offer of mechanical labor donations in queue for the next phase of this project. Jimmy owes $500.00 to the shop that has the coach and hopefully all but an injector pump...or wring issue related to the number 5 cylinder is all that remains to be fixed. We do not know yet if this shop caused that problem.At this point I'm not sure it is fair to say he is being ripped off. I think the major concern of the shop that has done the work thus far is making sure they get paid for the work. I think they may have dragged their feet for that reason...but I'm not totally sure of all the details there.The plan is to pay them the balance and move the coach to another location this week so the volunteer mechanics can properly assess and diagnose the remaining problem. They will also be able to determine if all other work was properly done an appropriately charged.I personally know of folks who donated money to this that were not really in a (financial) position to do so. I do know Jimmy is very grateful for the help and the support he has received.
Question of the Day for March 29,2011

I think Kyle will most likely accomplish his place among the greats without any help from the media and NASCAR. He is without a doubt one of the best I've ever seen...and I am not one of his fans. How could they possibly lump these together and make any sense out of that and the prior history? I remember some words Bill France once said even more clearly as time passes on..."It's our circus and we get to choose the clowns!"
I realize they need some hype and attention to the sport, but for goodness sake don't screw up the historical records (again) by creating this illusion.
