March 12, 2010

Have you ever just wondered how much stuff you can accumulate over time? Well, I’m starting to notice.

As some of you may know, I am leaving Talladega Superspeedway to take the position of Managing Director of Business Operations for International Speedway Corporation, the parent company of Talladega and 11 other tracks. This is something my family and I are very excited about.

I have been at Talladega for 13 years and during that time I have accumulated a lot of things . . . great knowledge, some trinkets and plaques and even a few honors along the way. All things I can pick up and take with me.

However, the thing I am most proud of are the friends that I have gathered over the years. For 26 races, I have watched as fans have flowed in and out of TSS and have always considered every one of them friends. Because you know, you always try to treat your friends a little different and a little more special. That’s just the way things are done at TSS by the entire staff.

So as my family and I pack up all of the stuff we’ve accumulated over the years and get ready for the move to the Daytona Beach-area, I say thank you for your support of Talladega Superspeedway and thanks for being a friend.
