Hendrick: ‘Our No. 1 expenditure … is people’
By Ed Hinton
Jul 14, 2007
From these North Carolina grounds, Hendrick has won six Cup championships and 159 races, all in Chevrolets.
Always running on the cutting edge of NASCAR technology, this powerful team also gets into trouble at times. Currently, Steve Letarte and Chad Knaus, crew chiefs for Gordon and Johnson, respectively, are serving six-race suspensions for disallowed fender configurations inspectors caught before a race.
Gordon and Johnson were docked 100 points each for the violation. But Gordon didn’t lose the lead in the standings and Johnson only dropped from third to fifth and now sits fourth—still excellent position to make the Chase for the Championship.
As if Hendrick weren’t already the New York Yankees of NASCAR, Dale Earnhardt Jr. will join the juggernaut next year.
