Winchester and the No. 3 Return to the Track for the Daytona 500

Winchester, The American Legend, will be featured on the iconic No.3 Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet, driven by Austin Dillon, during the Daytona 500 on Sunday, February 15.

The Daytona 500 is world renowned for its unmatched intensity and tradition. A significant part of that tradition is the No.3 Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet, once piloted by Dale Earnhardt Sr. This year marks the 25th anniversary of Dale Earnhardt's passing at the 2001 Daytona 500.

Winchester recognizes the weight of appearing on the iconic No.3 car during this year's Daytona 500 and is honored to carry the legacy forward as a partner of Richard Childress Racing and Bass Pro Shops.

Viewers can watch the 2026 Daytona 500 on FOX or Streaming on HBO Max, and listeners can find it on MRN and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio Channel 90.
