Hendrick Motorsports is one of the most dominant racing teams in the NASCAR Cup Series. The team was founded by Rick Hendrick, an All-Star racer, in 1984. Since then, the team has become one of the most popular racing teams in NASCAR, and it even employs the legendary Jeff Gordon, NASCAR racecar driver, as its Vice Chairman.

Currently, the team employs four drivers in the NASCAR Cup Series: Kyle Larson, Chase Elliott, William Byron, and Alex Bowman. Since its founding, the team has won 310 NASCAR Cup Series races and 14 Cup Series owners and drivers championships. It also participates in the Truck Series and Xfinity Series, and has won championships in both.

Due to the team’s success in NASCAR racing, it has blossomed into one of the wealthiest racing teams. Because of this, it is no wonder that Hendrick Motorsports utilizes several business jets for transporting its teams and drivers across the country during the busy NASCAR Cup Series. Let’s take a closer look at some of the aircraft that Hendrick Motorsports currently operates.
