Description

Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
The Richard Childress Racing Museum (RCR Museum) is a stock car racing museum located in Welcome, North Carolina.

Collections

The RCR Museum contains over 50 race cars, more than half of which were driven by Earnhardt. It contains the largest collection of Earnhardt's black #3 GM Goodwrench-sponsored Chevrolets anywhere in the world, most notably including his 1998 Daytona 500-winning car. Other Earnhardt cars of note on display include his 1995 Brickyard 400-winning car and all of his non-black cars from NASCAR All-Star Races between 1995 and 2000.

In addition to Earnhardt's cars, the RCR Museum also includes stock cars driven by Childress, Austin Dillon, Robby Gordon, and Kevin Harvick, as well as a truck driven by Mike Skinner. Among these cars is Harvick's first winning NASCAR Cup Series car, which was victorious at Atlanta Motor Speedway in 2001, shortly after Earnhardt's death at Daytona International Speedway. In addition to Cup Series cars, the museum also displays cars that raced in the NASCAR Xfinity Series, NASCAR Camping World Truck Series, and ARCA Racing Series, in addition to one of Earnhardt's car haulers. As of 2004, every car in the museum had an operational engine.

The RCR Museum's galleries have been built in the engine workshop, fabrication room, and research and development department of the former team workshop. Childress's own office has also been preserved as part of the museum.
