Darlington and Daytona

5 posts by 5 people · 14 Mar 1997 - 20 Mar 1997

Today while I was playing NASCAR 2 I discovered on Darlington turn 1 and 2 off of the front straight that there are two signs that say Daytona USA. I would like to know if anyone else has seen this and why this is possibly here. Thanks for time please look.

Daytona USA is a themed motorsports attraction, located near turn 4 at Daytona. (Sort of the "Universal Studios" type of deal, but for NASCAR.) Daytona USA has real ads at Darlington, and we were able to get the rights to use their logo on the ads, so we included it. (Daytona USA is run by a different company than Daytona International Speedway, so having the rights to the Daytona USA billboard is not the same as having the rights to the speedway. {Figured I'd head that one off before the *** theorists got hold of it...}) --Jim Sokoloff, Papyrus

They're way ahead of you, Jim. I understand that Oliver Stone has already bought the book rights and recently signed Woody Harrellson to play the lead. ;) Dave Sparks IWCCCARS Project: [link lost in import] Late Night League: http://www.sequoia-dev.com/Hawaii/latenite.html Hawaii Handle: davids

I think I've got it! Bill France was the guy on the grassy knoll--now it all makes sense... -- take care, Scott "Ich bin das Eierman, sie sind die Eiermaenner, Ich bin das Walross" "Je suis l'oeufhomme, ils sont les oeufhommes, je suis le moors"
