Hardcore race fans are invited to the Richard Childress Racing’s 40th Anniversary Fan Day on October 22nd at RCR.

"RCR Fan Day is a celebration of our 40th anniversary and a special way for all of us at RCR to say thank you to the fans and partners of RCR," Richard Childress, President and CEO of Richard Childress Racing, said. "We truly appreciate the participation of all the partners and exhibitors joining in the full day of festivities. Donating the proceeds from RCR Fan Day to the Childress Institute will allow everyone who attends to not only take part in our celebration but also help save the lives of seriously injured children across the United States."
