JLF‘s Charlotte/Mecklenburg regional voice, Jeff Taylor
held nothing back when he criticized the celebration over Charlotte’s
$154.5 million dollar NASCAR hall of fame, which was awarded to the
city earlier this week.  According to some reports, the hall’s
economic impact isn’t expected to be large, alhough Charlotte officials
think that some 800,000 visitors will come in the first year. Read the
coverage in the Charlotte Observer.
