Thanks for the Nascar thread this week Norm.

Here's some good news for Darlington..........

COLUMBIA, S.C. - "The Lady In Black" has apparently made it to another year.
Darlington Raceway president Chris Browning said Wednesday that the track got the go-ahead from its owners, International Speedway Corp., to send out ticket renewal letters for another Mother's Day weekend Nextel Cup race. The date of the Carolina Dodge Dealers 500 is May 13, 2006, the night before the holiday.

"I think if there were any other plans (for Darlington), ISC wouldn't let us do this," Browning told The Associated Press.

I love the name of this race! It rivals Atlanta's "Pork--The Other White Meat 500".
