A Spot for The Legend to Hang His Hat?
Current NASCAR
You know I immediately thought of you and had to rush to the computer.

Bill, when I read this news brief in this morning's paper I immediately pointed out to my wife that racing sure pays more than it used to... especially to the back markers.
Legend may not even be a connoisseur of the grape and have no need for a wine cave, in which case I have seen our RR members Patrick Reynolds and Shan Coughlin frequently converse on the subject of the fruit of the vine. With Patrick already located in the vicinity, perhaps he would have in interest in such a place sporting a "wine cave."
I did a quick calculation based on your generous offer and if we can come up with 391,489 more individuals willing to make a contribution of $11.75 each, we could close the deal!
I know our good friend Tim Leeming - THE LEGEND - makes numerous trips north every year from Columbia to Charlotte and the Mooresville area for all sorts of racing events and charity racing functions. It is a tiring round trip when you've been going since before dawn and leaving to go back late at night, sometimes in inclement weather.
It has come to my attention today that a property on Lake Norman has come on the market that Legend might consider purchasing as a spot to hang his hat and rest on these various trips rather than having to scoot back home. This property even carries a surprise bonus by having an original owner that Legend will recognize. What do you good folks think?
Formerly owned by NASCARs Michael Waltrip, the estate includes equestrian facilities, two race shops, an indoor basketball-racquetball court, a helicopter pad, a wine cave and ponds stocked with bass and catfish.
Randy, I had no idea there was such a nice looking track at Jacksonville, NC until I saw your note above and went to web site. Thanks.
Do you think the Kasey Kahne Allstate series commercials would rank?
Chase, you ought to start that thread. This King commercial isn't really bad nor really good, just really classic in that he was shilling for Lowe's before JJ came along:
Years from now, when all the dust has settled, I suspect Jeremy may best be remembered for starring in perhaps the worst NASCAR sponsor television commercial ever made.
The most famous meeting of the Stacy-Pak Vitamin blue and yellow car and the Wrangler blue & yellow car between Tim & Dale was at Pocono in July 1982.
And, as Chase pointed out several years ago, Dale's car came to rest under the Schaefer Beer signage on the Pocono boiler plate steel wall!
