Winchester Ammunition Featured on Special Patriotic-Themed No. 3 Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet
EAST ALTON, IL (May 21, 2025) — Austin Dillon, the 2017 Coca-Cola 600 race winner, will race a patriotic-themed No. 3 Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet featuring Winchester Ammunition in this year’s Coca-Cola 600 on Sunday, May 25.
As part of NASCAR’s Honor and Remember program, Dillon’s name on the windshield header of the No. 3 Chevrolet will be replaced by the name of fallen Army Staff Sargent Sean Gregory Landrus, a native of Thompson, Ohio. Landrus died Jan 29, 2004 from injuries he suffered when a roadside bomb exploded and hit the convoy he was in near Khalidiyah, Iraq, during Operation Iraqi Freedom.
“Winchester has a long history of supporting the U.S. Military and we’re honored to have our brand featured on the car bearing Army Staff Sergeant Sean Gregory Landrus’ name,” said Brett Flaugher, President of Winchester Ammunition. “Good luck to Austin Dillon this weekend in the Coca-Cola 600.”
Viewers can watch the race live on Amazon Prime on Sunday, May 25 beginning at 6 p.m Eastern.
