Hendrick Motorsports Brings On Veterans To Help Out Their Pit Crew
A lot of NASCAR fans are getting ready for the Bank of America 500. Even veterans are getting into the mix. To celebrate service members ahead of the Bank of America 500 next week, the bank, USO of North Carolina and Hendrick Motorsports gave three N.C. veterans a special lesson in what it takes to be a NASCAR pit crew member. Lead by Team 48 Crew Chief Chad Knaus, the vets took part in a typical pit crew workout and a hands-on pit crew training session. They were also surprised with a special invitation to the Bank of America 500.
It’s all part of Bank of America’s longstanding support for service members and veterans, especially as they transition from their service to civilian careers. The company will continue this tradition by honoring members of the military at the Bank of America 500, as well as by hosting military service organizations from across the country throughout the race weekend.
