Hendrick Motorsports officials announced Thursday it has reopened its museum on its Charlotte campus. The 15,000-square-foot facility recently opened after four months for renovations.
Fans can see team owner Rick Hendrick's first Chevrolet, a dissected Impala SS "car of tomorrow" being pieced together, as well as cars and memorabilia of Hendrick Cup drivers Casey Mears, Jeff Gordon, Jimmie Johnson and Dale Earnhardt Jr.
Admission is free, and the museum is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.
"We are extremely proud of this museum, and we hope our fans will enjoy it," Hendrick said. "We've had a lot of success and a lot of special moments over the years, and it's humbling to reflect on that. But the one thing we always keep in mind is that it wouldn't be possible without our fans' support."
