RICHMOND, Va. – Several NASCAR Sprint Cup teams are carrying logos honoring the late David Poole this weekend at Richmond International Raceway.

The four Hendrick Motosports cars are carrying a logo that has "DCP" for David Carl Poole and is in Carolina blue in honor of his alma mater, the University of North Carolina, in remembrance of the reporter who covered NASCAR for The Charlotte Observer and also hosted a program on Sirius XM Satellite Radio.

Stewart-Haas Racing’s cars are also carrying a decal honoring the writer. The logo on the Stewart-Haas cars reads, “In Memory of David Poole 1959-2009” and includes images of a fountain pen and a microphone.

Cars for Roush Fenway Racing, Penske Racing and Richard Childress Racing are among others also carrying decals.

Poole died Tuesday at the age of 50.

Condolences to Davids family and friends and a great gesture on part of Nascar teams for someone who has had such a passion for the sport and it's fans. He will be sorely missed by all in Nascar and the fans.

I and a few friends would like to purchase one of the decals to put on our own trucks. It would be a good idea for the teams to sell the decals for a donation to a charity in David's honor. If anyone from the teams has any information please let us fans know if buying the decals would be possible. Dan
