Hendrick Motorsports
Cabarrus County/
Mecklenburg County and
Concord, North Carolina
'
Chase Elliott's
NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Rookie Year'
This tour includes the
Administration building,
Jimmie Johnson &
Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s race shop, Chase Elliott &
Kasey Kahne's race shop and the Hendrick Motorsports
Museum. The sound in the background at 0:06 is one of one of the
Hendrick engines being fired up which was loud enough to be heard over the entire campus and what you see is a Hendrick Motorsports
sign behind the parked white van. That sign is the original sign that has been at Hendrick Motorsports which has been at that same spot for decades before the property was expanded. Just to the left and behind the
Administration Building at
0:22, is a long set of garages. In
1984 the only structures on this property which was owned by
Harry Hyde was his house and these set of garages.
Hyde let
Rick Hendrick previously store his boats in these garages and in 1984 Rick Hendrick rented 5,
000 feet of space out of these set of garages that still exist today to form Hendrick Motorsports.
The tour of the Chase Elliott and Kasey Kahne race shop begins at 0:52.
Even though it has only been 12 days into the new year,
Elliott's new
2016 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series #24
NAPA Chevrolet SS has already been put on display in the lobby replacing retired
Jeff Gordon's
2015 #24
Axalta Chevrolet SS from last year
. In the shop at 4:53 a black #24 Chevrolet SS can be seen. This is the car Elliott drove in a one day
Goodyear tire test at
Homestead-Miami Speedway on
December 14, 2015 which was his first time in the #24 car. Another angle of the car at 5:17 shows the NAPA logo that is on the hood. Hendrick Motorsports placed a partition in front of the car making it difficult for the public to take photos or video of it. Also in the shop is cars driven by
Gordon in 2015 that are being taken apart along with the car Kasey Kahne drove in the
2015 Ford EcoBoost 400 (only car in the shop that has a yellow 5 number).
