WELCOME, N.C.  Richard Childress Racing announced several key executive leadership appointments as the storied organization kicks off the NASCAR season.

After serving as chief operating officer for over a year, Mike Verlander has been promoted to president of the championship motorsports company.

Verlander is responsible for overseeing all day-to-day operations of RCR Enterprises, LLC, including RCRs NASCAR race team, as well as RCR Manufacturing Solutions, RCR Graphics, ECR Engines and Childress Technologies.

Verlander will report to Richard Childress, chairman and chief executive officer, and will also become a member of the Board of Directors for RCR.

As a 20-year veteran of the motorsports industry, Verlander has previously held executive leadership positions at both Kyle Busch Motorsports as president and Stewart-Haas Racing as executive vice president.

I am extremely thankful to Richard and Judy for this opportunity to lead RCR as we continue to expand our operations within the motorsports industry and beyond, said Verlander. Having Torrey close by as an advisor while I make this transition is invaluable. Im ready to build up on the great things achieved by Torrey and the whole leadership team. Great days are coming for our employees, partners, fans, and all stakeholders.

Galida, who has served as president since 2014, has been named vice chairman. As the first person other than Childress to carry the title of president, Galida has led RCRs growth for the past fourteen years.

I have been honored to play a role in RCRs success during my tenure as president, said Galida. I cant thank Richard and Judy, and the entire organization, enough for the past fourteen years and I feel lucky to have been part of this team. Im looking forward to this next chapter of my career where I can focus on key strategic operations within the RCR organization and continue to make an impact.

Galida will remain with the company as an advisor to both Childress and Verlander through the end of 2025. Galida will also retain his seat on the Board of Directors for RCR.

Torrey has been a tremendous asset to RCR in his role as president, said Childress. He has been a strong leader and helped us navigate many changes and challenges over recent years. I am proud of the work that he has done and the direction he has led the organization. He will continue to contribute to our future.

Mike has also done a great job this past year in his role as chief operating officer as he has learned all aspects of our organization, said Childress. He has a clear vision for our future and will foster a culture that inspires our entire team. I look forward to seeing our continued growth under his leadership.
