Is Bruton Smith being paid off to stay?

A Cabarrus County North Carolina commissioner considered an outcast among his peers, says the public has a right to know what is being done to keep Bruton Smith from moving Lowe's Motor Speedway from Concord. Commissioner Coy Privette released a private email, which lays out the incentives that are being discussed to keep LMS in the county. Privette says the people have a right to know how their money, rumored at $75 million, is being spent. He recently accused Cabarrus County commissioners of being mouthpieces for the Chamber of Commerce and "engaging in unethical practices" in their efforts to rename Speedway Boulevard to Bruton Smith Boulevard. The commission says what was made public only represents what they talked about nearly a week ago. Since then, they have met several times including one lengthy meeting with Smith. Cupscenedaily.com
