ISC Names NASCAR Exec Kerry Tharp Darlington Raceway President
Wile assumed his duties at Daytona on May 1, but has been back and forth between Darlington and Daytona since then helping the track, which has 12 full-time employees and hosts one Cup race a year, get ready for the Bojangles’ Southern 500 on Labor Day weekend. Tharp’s appointment comes at an important time for the track, which is just more than two months away from the second running of its Tradition Returns throwback theme that is now woven into all parts of the race weekend.
