Ricky Hendrick’s second Late Model win

11 years ago today, Ricky Hendrick won his second NASCAR Winston Racing Series Late Model race at Concord Motorsport Park. I was elated to be a small part of it. The times we shared racing Late Models will stay with me the rest of my life.

The race win was so exciting, but we definitely missed having Ricky’s dad Rick Hendrick with us. At this point we were so hopeful his Leukemia treatments would be successful and we could possibly see him return to the race track when he was able. Behind the scenes, it was tough, and Rick battled incredibly hard. We weren’t sure what the future would hold for his health, but we wanted to do all we could to brighten his day at the least.

Here’s a flashback to our first Late Model win: https://michaelmyrick.org/ricky-hendricks-first-late-model-win/

Welcome to my online home since 2004. I blog a bit about my life as it happens, my work as I am permitted, and occasional throwback entries. When I'm not writing new posts, I actively curate this blog, improving the wording or adding new media to old posts, and finally finishing old drafts I've left sitting for years. It is not my intention to be a source of news or content. I don’t have anything to sell, and I’m not trying to get likes/shares/follows. This site is an autobiographical effort - imperfections and all. My life, remembered in my words, my way.

When known, I include credit for photos in the captions. Contact me for photo credit or removal. *Side note: If you make one of my Mother's recipes, I'd be happy to post a photo of the finished product in the corresponding post, and give you full photo credit.
