Anduril, a defense tech company, recently partnered with Hendrick Motorsports ahead the upcoming NASCAR Cup race at Naval Base Coronado in San Diego.

The deal will see Anduril appear as a primary sponsor for two-time Daytona 500 William Byron and the No. 24 HMS Chevrolet in two races in each over the next three years. Unsurprisingly, their first race will be the one taking place on an active military base on June 21. They are also the title sponsor of the event, which is called the Anduril 250. More info on the unique new street course and its layout can be found HERE.

According to Anduril, their "portfolio includes autonomous aircraft and underwater vehicles, AI-powered sensor platforms and electronic-warfare systems used by the U.S. Department of Defense and allied militaries."

Apparently, it also includes giving away entire race cars! As part of a new sweepstakes, fans can enter with a chance to win an actual, fully functioning Gen-6 NASCAR Cup Series car, which was used at the top level of the sport between 2013 and 2021. The car has been wrapped with Byron's Anduril paint scheme, and the number has been moved forward like on the Next Gen cars. 

In the video below, Anduril stresses that the car is not street legal, and will have 630+ horsepower with the capability of reaching speeds of 200mph.

You can enter the sweepstakes HERE. However, if you don't want the car and would prefer cash, the winner can choose to receive he approximate retail value of the race car -- $250,000. But hey, we think you should take the car...just imagine the track days at your nearest road course?
