Before the board went into closed session at the end of the meeting, Commissioner Jim Harrell Jr. brought up the project, which proposes to create a housing development northeast of Mount Airy. The developers have asked the Mount Airy and Surry County boards to fund water and sewer extensions to the development. Harrell informed the board that he thought the topic should be revisited in the future. He said that some took the board’s recent action to deny incentives for WSSMA as a complete closing of the door on the project, but Harrell said, “I don’t think we got into specifics enough to do that.” MONDEE TILLEY/THE NEWS Of revisiting the topic, Board Chairman Paul Johnson Sarah Almond presents Pilot Mountain Mayor Earl Sheppard with a rendering of the Amos and Smith hosiery said, “I’d rather not.” mill during the grand opening of The Pilot Center Thursday afternoon.

  • The True Story of the Year the King, Jaws, Earnhardt, and the Rest
    He Crashed Me So I Crashed Him Back: The True Story of the Year the King, Jaws, Earnhardt, and the Rest of NASCAR's Feudin', Fightin' Good Ol' Boys Put Stock Car Racing on the Map, Mark Bechtel, Little, Brown, 2011, 0316034037, 9780316034036, 320 pages. On a cold February day in 1979, when most of the Northeast was snowed in by a blizzard, NASCAR entered the American consciousness with a dramatic telecast of the Daytona 500. It was the first 500-mile race to be broadcast live on national television and featured the heroes and legends of the sport racing on a hallowed track. With one of the wildest finishes in sports history--a finish that was just the start of the drama--everything changed for what is now America's second most popular sport. HE CRASHED ME SO I CRASHED HIM BACK is the story of an emerging sport trying to find its feet. It's the story of how Bobby Allison, Donnie Allison, Cale Yarborough, Richard Petty, Dale Earnhardt, Darrell Waltrip, A.J. Foyt, and Kyle Petty came together in an unforgettable season that featured the first nationally televised NASCAR races. There were rivalries--even the sibling kind--and plenty of fistfights, feuds, and frenzied finishes. Rollicking and full of larger-than-life characters, HE CRASHED ME SO I CRASHED HIM BACK is the remarkable tale of the birth of modern stock-car racing..
