STATESVILLE, N.C. — Legacy Motor Club announced that Grammy Award-winning artist Darius Rucker has joined the organization as an investor.
Rucker, a lifelong sports fan and respected voice in entertainment, brings a unique perspective to Legacy Motor Club as it continues to build a modern motorsports brand rooted in heritage and driven by the future.
“Darius is someone who understands the power of connection – with fans, with communities and through storytelling,” said Jimmie Johnson, owner of Legacy Motor Club. “What he’s built in music, the authenticity he brings to everything he does aligns directly with who we are as a club. We’re excited to welcome him into Legacy and to build something meaningful together.”
Rucker confirmed his involvement earlier today live on “The Dan Patrick Show,” telling Patrick, “We can now announce that I am one of the investors of Legacy Motor Club… It’s cool. You know how much I love motorsports. You know how much I’ve loved NASCAR for years, so this is pretty cool for me.”
As an investor, Rucker will collaborate with the organization on select initiatives that bridge sports, music and fan engagement, while supporting the club’s continued business and brand development.
The addition of Rucker reflects Legacy Motor Club’s broader vision of bringing new voices and perspectives into NASCAR, while continuing to evolve how teams connect with fans on and off the track. The club will plan to announce a portfolio of additional investors in the near future.
“From day one, this has been about building a club that people want to be part of,” Johnson added. “Darius brings a different lens, a creative mindset and a passion for people that will help us continue to grow in new ways.”
Legacy Motor Club fields full-time NASCAR Cup Series entries for Erik Jones and John Hunter Nemechek.
