Business center opens in Cleveland

Rick Earnhardt, his father Bob Earnhardt and Doug Beasley have opened 42 Business Center in the Cleveland community.

The business has 18 computers for users to surf the Internet and type and print documents. “People in this area are saying ‘I am glad there is something here because we have to drive all the way to Garner,’” Rick Earnhardt said. “You prepay with a card and swipe the card in the computer.”

Also, users can play games on the Internet. “It is a game of chance,” Rick said. “You click the button and it lands on a winner. You have access to online games that are fun and free.”

42 Business Center is at 106 Bratton Drive. It opens at noon Monday through Saturday. For more information, call 772-4420 or write to 42businesscenter@bellsouth.net.

Used cars in Clayton

Darrow Automotive has opened Clayton Auto Outlet, a used car dealership. Darrow, based out of Wisconsin, also has new and used car dealerships in Goldsboro, Kinston and Jacksonville.

“People like having the opportunity to purchase a quality pre-owned vehicle from a new car dealer,” said Russ Darrow III, president and chief executive officer. “We wanted to bring this concept west of our Goldsboro locations to the Clayton area.”

Darrow Automotive is at 13578 U.S. 70 West Business. Hours are from 9 a.m. till 8 p.m. Monday through Saturday. For additional information, call 550-0801 or 1-800-757-5560. The Web site is www.claytonautooutlet.com.

Honda, Yamaha and Polaris parts and other accessories are sold in the store. KTM motorcycles and E-Ton ATVs are available at the Garner store.

The 15,000-square-foot building includes a maintenance and repair center for motorcycles and ATVs. “One of the highlights of Team Powersports is our experienced group of mechanics,” the company states on its Web site. “You can be assured that when you drop off your motorcycle or ATV, one of our full-time mechanics will treat it like was one of his own.”

Team Powersports is at 721 Venture Drive. It is open from 9 a.m. till 6 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday and from 9 a.m. till 5 p.m. Saturdays. For further details, call 865-3240 or go to www.team-powersports.com.
