A visit from Mr. Rick Hendrick!

Friday October 7th was a very special day for all of us up at Superior Lexus North, for the one and only Mr. Rick Hendrick came in to visit with us! It's not everyday you are afforded the opportunity to meet with the owner of not only Hendrick Automotive Group, but also a very successful Hendrick Motorsports professional racing team. Mr. Hendrick and his team were in town for the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race being held at the Kansas City Speedway on October 9th. As luck would have it the Hendrick Motorsports team came away with the win! Jimmie Johnson won his 55th cup, and Hendrick Motorsports achieved its 199th win overall. You can find full details regarding the win at the Hendrick Motorsports website here. What an achievement, on both accounts!

We were so thrilled to meet with Mr. Hendrick and so thankful that he takes the time to come see each us at the dealership to show is appreciation for our hard work. We will definitely look forward to meeting with him again next year!
