Richard Childress is a highly respected figure in the world of NASCAR, mainly because of his contributions to the growth of the sport. His involvement with various racing teams has played a significant role in promoting NASCAR and fostering its competitiveness. And, through an insider, we may have found out how Childress does it all!

In the 2016 season, Richard Childress Racing and Kaulig Racing announced a technical alliance that has further propelled both teams. This alliance enables both teams to collaborate by sharing resources and information. A big part of this alliance is the ECR Engines.

NASCAR is currently undertaking a new project aimed at implementing changes in short tracks. As part of this endeavor, the governing body will be conducting a test race using a new short track package on July 17-18, 2023, at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. Notably, Kaulig Racing, led by Matt Kaulig, will be participating in this test race, with their driver Justin Haley taking the wheel.

During a recent episode of the MRN Crew Call podcast, Randall Burnett, the Crew Chief for Kyle Busch, shed light on how their alliance with Kaulig Racing amid all this is beneficial.

He said, “They’re good partners of us. We do all our meetings with them, and share lot of information with them so you know we work really good together with Trent and Matt and everybody there at Kaulig”

He continued, “So we’ll definitely be keeping a close eye on what they’re doing up there, take all their feedback, and see if we can learn anything from that test. I don’t know what NASCAR’s plans are doesn’t sound like they are going to change that for this year.”

Randall expressed uncertainty regarding NASCAR’s future plans by stating, “You know… they’ve been known to do crazier things so we’ll just see how that test goes, I think if it’s a smashing success and then maybe you know they’ll do something different, I don’t know.”

You cross railroad tracks, you come in there and see the museum, see a lot of cool cars in the windows up there and just uh you know they done a great job, RC’s done a great job of building this place and really taking it and working with the alliance teams helping other teams getting going and you know he’s done that for a long time and it’s really impressive to see it grow and be a part of it.”
