It specifically provides the full design of the content that will be required to achieve the future state of NASCAR digital content. This starts with a more detailed view of the content model. Then, the definition of content components focuses on the elements that comprise different types of content that will be required to feed this content to the components on the page. They do not specify presentation in any way. Each content type is broken down into all the elements and fields, both metadata and content, that will be required. In addition to defining the content component design, this document also includes a representation of the CMS branching structure and taxonomy. Finally, this document lists the metadata that will be driven by a controlled vocabulary via dropdowns or multiselect lists. It also provides the values for these controlled metadata tags (gathered as of February 2012). Note: This document is a living document that may be further refined and added to as further design details are completed.

  • Denny Hamlin Driver, #11 Fedex Chevrolet Monte Carlo Ss
    DENNY HAMLIN DRIVER, #11 FEDEX CHEVROLET MONTE CARLO SS Birthdate : November 18, 1980 Hometown : Chesterfield, VA Resides : Davidson, NC Height : 6’0” Weight : 170lbs Marital Status : Single Favorite Driver : Bill Elliott Denny Hamlin will take the wheel of the #11 FedEx Chevrolet in 2007 looking to build on an impressive rookie season and once again challenge for the NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Championship. Hamlin’s rise to NASCAR’s top level has been nothing short of meteoric, considering he was driving Late Model stock cars only three years ago. In 2006, Hamlin burst on the scene with his win at the prestigious Bud Shootout at Daytona, and carried that early momentum into one of the most successful rookie campaigns in NASCAR history. On his way to becoming the first ever rookie to earn a spot in the Chase for the NEXTEL Cup, Hamlin posted his first career Nextel Cup win in dominating style at Pocono Raceway. He captured three Bud Pole awards, both Pocono stops and homecoming triumph at Richmond International Raceway. By the time Hamlin sealed the Raybestos Rookie of the Year award, he was challenging for a Nextel Cup championship, ultimately finishing third. Hamlin’s abilities were on display in the Busch Series in 2006 as well. In his second full season, Hamlin recorded two wins, 23 top-ten finishes and seven pole awards. While Hamlin now finds himself racing at the highest level of NASCAR, he has been winning races since the early age of seven when he began his career racing karts in the Junior Sportsman League.
