The 2023 NASCAR season will be the first without a team bearing the Petty family name.
Petty GMS Racing announced Wednesday that it was changing its team name to Legacy Motor Club. The name change comes after seven-time Cup Series champion Jimmie Johnson joined the team’s ownership group at the end of the 2022 season.
His son Richard then became the king of NASCAR with seven Cup Series titles and 200 wins. Richard Petty became the first driver to win seven titles and is the only driver with more than 105 Cup Series wins. The team kept that name through multiple iterations through 2021 before Maury Gallagher’s GMS Racing became the majority owner of the team ahead of the 2022 season. The team expanded to two cars for 2022 and ran just one season as Petty GMS Racing before adding Johnson as a co-owner and rebranding on Wednesday.
