This article does not represent a neutral point of view as required by wikipedia's biography policy. It leaves out certain verifiable details and substitutes 3 sections of charitable contributions. This article needs to be revised to conform to standards of a biography and not simply a list of awards and charitable achievements. 24.61.223.149 (talk) 19:23, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
- Hendrick is neither CEOnor President of HAG, and hasn't been since at least 2000. I don't know if he was before, but he *is* chairman and is listed as owner of the privately- held company.
- Also, HAG is not the largest chain. I did see reference that it was in 2000 or earlier.
- I changed revenues to $3B, as both a Hendrick release and a dated Yahoo Finance reference indicates that it is a closer figure. I kept the number and number of states approximate, as I found 9- and 10- state references (I'm sure these numbers fluctuate often)
- Added the fraud, sentencing, and Clinton pardon (in a neutral manner, I believe). I felt the info relevant, especially the year ban from racing and HAG. There are several references available about his fraud ordeal and, yes, to his pardon if one does an internet search.

- Thinking about it later, I removed a (my) statement ", but said he received nothing in return". I found scant reference to that statement, and he appeared to have recanted.

Does anyone have any more information on the Hendick bribery scandal? The urban legend is that John Ponos went to prison for a few years as he took the wrap for some higher ups. Is there any truth to this? I couldn't find anything on Google.
This needs to be edited. Rick Hendrick has 159 Cup wins as of 14 June, 2007, and not over 200 as is described in the article. Source is http://racing-reference.info/owner?id=hendrri01 If I had enough expertise, I'd do it myself.Kf4mgz 17:44, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
