Wished we could have seen the shop but totally understand the need to be safe. The young lady that helped us when we walked in was very helpful and she asked Chocolate Myers to come talk with us and he did. He was super nice and just as personable as he seems on the radio. Its not all talk folks, hes the real deal

Great place to visit if you are interested in Nascar at all. The spsce is a lot bigger than it looks from the outside, so the tour is definitely worth it. Lots of good history about racing as well as RCR throughout the years. Definitely leave time to read all the info. A small gift shop is available for souvenirs.

The museum and race shop are in two different buildings but both are worth the trip. Before you leave, drive around the campus. You never know what other teams you may find. Or who you may see. Austin Dillion drove his Chevy Tahoe past me while I was setting up my GPS.

I was in the area just passing through and knew that I had to stop. Definitely worth the $10 that it cost to do this self guided tour. Ive been around racing all 35 years of my life and even though Im not a die hard fan this brought back so many memories of being a child. I wish I had gotten a chance to tell Chocolate Myers what a great job they have done but he was busy. I will be going back soo to take my dad.

This was one of my favorite shops out of all I visited although it is the furthest from the track. There is a small fee, but it is worth the money. Well put together displays, seeing Earnhardts cars made the drive worth it. Its definitely a stop for any fan. There are also displays showing environmental conservation and the NRA.

We got to stop by but didnt visit the museum part. The setup of the campus is very cool and Im sure the museum is super cool especially if you were an Earnhardt fan. I stopped in to ask about vinyl wraps because they are one of the only teams that wraps their own cars. They let me visit the graphics department and got to see the printers. Very appreciative of their hospitality for a tourist. I will never forget my experience! Cannot wait to go back.

We came from California to attend The 50th Anniversary Fan Day. It was amazing. Everyone was so nice, friendly, & helpful. We got so many autographs, and they were all so nice. Thank you Richard and staff for such an awesome amazing day. We had fun all day long!! Worth the cost of flying out here.

Amazing experience, no reviews can justify the feeling you get when you walk through the door, you have to experience it for yourself. Staff at all the shops/museums were very friendly and eager to talk to you about Racing.

Loved the collection of cars from one of racing’s best - Dale Earnhardt. It’s a nice roughly hour and a half walk through of the history of RCR, but could use some modernization and interactivity elements added.

I’m not much of a NASCAR fan, but thoroughly enjoyed this museum. We spent a couple hours going through everything and I learned a lot about the history of Childress Racing.

More accurately the Dale Earnhardt museum probably because he did more for getting Richard Childress Racing where it is today. We saw some of the real history if racing and that included meeting Chocolate Meyers. A real southern gentleman.

This place is awesome. Richard Childress and All the members of RCR are amazing. We visited on fan day and it was an amazing day. From the Museum to shop tour to autograph session with their drivers. The kindness from everyone was fantastic. We travelled from Vancouver Canada and it was worth every penny to get there. Thank you Richard Childress for an unforgetable day.

This place deserves more than 5 stars! Me and my father came to fan day at RCR, and everyone was so friendly! The staff was excellent, the team workers was very friendly, and got to meet Austin Dillon, Ty Dillon, and Daniel Hemric! These are the nicest drivers Ive ever met in nascar racing, and Ive met plenty of drivers! Ive became a big fan of RCR! I will attend RCR fan day ever year from now on! The museum was the best Nascar museum Ive ever seen! These guys deserve a lot more than 5 stars! Give me 10 atars!!!! A+!!!!!

My family planned on seeing a few racing shops near Charlotte and thought about stopping here on the way. We ended up spending so much time here we cancelled our other plans! Theres so much to see on the self guided tour, including RCRs history, several Earnhardt cars including some Winston Select alternate paint schemes, his Daytona 500 winning car, Harvicks first winning, photo finish 29 car, Dillons Daytona 500 winning car and many others. It was better than I expected. My wife is a casual fan but wants to come back on the guided tour.

If you are fan of stock car racing through the decades then this has to be on your bucket list. I was never a fan of the number 3 when Dale Earnhardt drove it however there is so much more to Richards museum than just the 3. I did not plan properly and I only allowed half a day to see it which was a big mistake I could have easily spent the entire day there

RCR is a must see for any NASCAR fan! The Museum is THE place to go to see all things Dale Earnhardt and RCR! Chocolate Myers is in his office, in the museum gift shop, doing his live XM Radio show during the week. The gift shop manager, Kim is very friendly and helpful and does a great job taking care of all the customers/visitors! The main race shop is very impressive, and has a fan walk where you can see into the race shop and other areas. Also, there are other race teams in the complex, as well as other buildings that house ECR Racing Engines, show car, etc. Very fan friendly!
