Overview
- Legacy Motor Club unveiled the full strategic ownership group on Thursday, July 30, adding athletes, entertainers and business leaders to its investor roster.
- The group includes high-profile names such as Scott Dixon, Dario Franchitti, Tony Kanaan, Bryce Harper, Andy Roddick, Kelly Slater, Jen Rubio, Sam Byrne, Darius Rucker, Guy Fieri and Chase Utley.
- Johnson remains the majority owner and the team, co-owned with institutional partners, currently fields the No. 42 for John Hunter Nemechek and the No. 43 for Erik Jones while planning a third full-time Cup car for 2027.
- Legacy says the investors collectively represent more than 30 major championships and titles and were chosen to help grow the organization beyond racing into media, partnerships, hospitality and fan experience.
- The inclusion of Scott Dixon drew attention because of his recent public criticism of Cup race length, highlighting potential PR scrutiny even as the group is pitched as a cultural and competitive investment.
