Two of the most inspirational people in my life are Linda Hendrick and her former sister-in-law Cathy Hendrick. They are each an amazing example of Christianity under trial. Here is a great Q&A session with them both regarding their faith in the midst of the Hendrick Motorsports plane crash in 2004.
We do TV commercials all the time, but rarely do we take behind-the-scenes photos because we are just too busy working. Also in some cases, they’re frowned upon as the sponsor understandably wants to be the one to premier the scene. In this case, my showcar driver had some time on his hands after getting […]
I’ve been around for so many Hendrick Motorsports Media Days that I’ve lost track. So many paint scheme and driver unveilings through the years, and so much hype and hoopla. I secretly LOVE it, but I try my best to act like it’s just another day. My department is responsible for working with the graphic […]

I am so proud to be a very small part of the 2006 NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Championship! Great performance by Jimmie Johnson, Chad Knaus, the #48 Lowe’s team, and the rest of Hendrick Motorsports! I’m happy to be part of it!
Among other things, my group is in charge of preparing the two-seat race cars Jeff Gordon and others use for various charity, sponsor, or promotional events. Most of the time they are used for charity ride-alongs, but recently we prepared a #24 DuPont two-seater as part of the filming of an upcoming episode of Conversations […]
*One of Mary Myrick’s best recipes* Ingredients: For each sandwich you will need: Toast the bread and spread mayonnaise on one side of each slice. Place the pineapple slice onto one of the toast slices, the slice of cheese on top of the pineapple and the bacon on top of the cheese. Top with the […]
I saw a man I knew for years take his last breath two years ago today. He suffered a massive heart attack and crashed his car into a power pole right by us. We heard a collision and saw the lights flicker in the shop, so we stepped outside to see what happened. Seeing a […]
