Dale's remains are in a marble mausoleum on the three square mile family farm located in Mooresville, NC.
Only a hand-full of family members and a few close friends (Richard Chlldress) know exactly where the tomb is.

Have you seen or driven any of the 2011 Intimiodator Camaros?
Sales manager Steve Gelnett said 11 have been built and sold and I wonder were they are.

Actually $60K is a bargain for a 501 cu. in. Super Charged Camaro. They are 'Bad To The Bone' in my eyes.....
Steve Gelnett gave me the inside info on them last time I talked with him. Currently, Earnhardt Chevy is only building them 'on demand' and had to turn down a request from a customer in Canada. Seems USA GM dealers can't sell there due to various trade agreements, union rules, etc. Go figure......

Good info J.D.............
'Ole Steve and the boyz at DEC are always thinkin'.
I reckon I'll have to post a photo of the '11 Intimidator promotional card so everyone can see this AWESOME Camaro.
There are rumors that it will 'Spank' the new Z06, Z11, etc Vettes.......
