Richard Childress recently spent 10 days in the mountains of Mongolia, stalking the biggest wild sheep in the world. The he returned home to chase another quarry — a fourth car for his Nextel Cup organization.
Both will have to wait. Childress, a renowned hunter who has several of his kills on display in the museum of his Welcome, N.C., shop, never got a shot at the trophy sheep he wanted, and plans to return to Mongolia to try again. He hasn’t quite found the right combination for a fourth car, either, so any expansion will likely be on hold until 2009.
