Riley Herbst to Drive Full-Time for Legacy Motor Club in 2027
Riley Herbst is set to drive the No. 84 car for Legacy Motor Club during the 2027 NASCAR season, adding a third full-time entry to the team.
Herbst, currently with 23XI Racing, will race alongside the Nos. 42 and 43 cars, driven by John Hunter Nemechek and Erik Jones. Nemechek is expected to leave Legacy after the 2026 season, with Josh Berry likely to take over his position.
Team co-owner Jimmie Johnson stated that the decision to expand to a third car was made to enhance the team's competitiveness and development. He noted that running a third car on a limited schedule was not beneficial and emphasized the need for more resources and personnel to achieve their goals of becoming a premier team in NASCAR.
