Plans for Mixed-Use Development Across From Daytona Speedway - Don't Complain About The Noise in February

~ Initiates Study to Analyze Feasibility of Retail, Entertainment, Office and Residential Project Near Daytona International Speedway ~

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla., May 19 -- International Speedway Corporation today announced it has entered into an agreement with Casto Lifestyle Properties, L.P. ("Casto") to pursue a joint venture for the development of a commercial mixed-use shopping center project on approximately 50 acres currently owned by ISC. Located directly across U.S. Highway 92 from Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Florida, the acreage currently includes several office buildings that house the corporate headquarters and certain related operations of ISC and NASCAR, as well as a limited number of other tenants.

The project is estimated to be constructed at a cost in excess of $75 million and would be comprised of retail, entertainment, office and residential components designed to complement surrounding commercial developments by offering unique options for consumers. Cobb Theatres of Birmingham, Alabama, plans to build an 18-screen megaplex theater as part of the project, the largest in Volusia County, featuring stadium seating and state-of-the-art projection and audio systems to maximize the movie-going experience.

The concept for the development is based on the successful Winter Park Village lifestyle project located in Winter Park, Florida, that was developed by Casto and opened in 2001. Loft apartments above street front stores, offices, specialty and convenience retail, and restaurant and entertainment venues are effectively combined to create an urban village environment attractive to both local residents and tourists.

"Driven by the continued growth of Daytona Beach and surrounding areas, we view this development as an opportunity to reinvest in the local community and unlock the full value of this prime acreage located across the street from the world-famous Daytona International Speedway," commented Lesa France Kennedy, President of ISC. "We are pleased to explore this prospect with Casto, who leverages more than 70 years' experience in the real estate industry and would have primary responsibility for the project's leasing and property management. And, while we are only in the beginning stages of the process, we look forward to working closely with Casto and the local community as we explore the design of a development that is well-suited and provides significant economic benefits for the area."

Next steps for the project include a detailed feasibility study in which a number of key issues will be addressed. In addition, a formal outreach program will be initiated, including detailed discussions with local officials and business groups, current tenants, neighboring developments and others. Provided the results of the feasibility study are favorable and appropriate leasing considerations are attained, the Company expects to move forward with the project within the next six to 12 months.

The project has tremendous potential, according to Brett Hutchens, President and CEO of Casto Lifestyle Properties. "Our company has been looking at various sites in the Daytona market for the last several years," said Hutchens, "but to have the chance to develop a regional mixed-use project at such a dynamic location represents an exceptional opportunity. Volusia County and the neighboring markets represent a significant trade area, and the excellent access to this site from I-95 will allow us to draw from a very large area. The incremental effect of tourism in the area and the multiple event weeks at the Daytona International Speedway makes this a site and project with tremendous potential.

Hutchens added, "We are honored to be selected as the developer for this high profile project and we are looking forward to working with Lesa France Kennedy and the ISC team to create a project that defines success."
