John Hunter Nemechek and the No. 42 LEGACY MOTOR CLUB team will be rocking a new look with a new primary sponsorship partner in a couple of weeks as Hertz, an iconic rental car brand, will adorn the team’s No. 42 Toyota Camry XSE in the July 20 NASCAR Cup Series event at Dover Motor Speedway.

The partnership provides a link between LEGACY MOTOR CLUB and the Cadillac Hertz Team JOTA Racing organization in the FIA World Endurance Championship, which is also co-owned by Knighthead Capital Management, LLC, which became an investor in LEGACY MOTOR CLUB heading into the 2025 season.

Nemechek, 28, is amped to partner with Hertz, which last sponsored a NASCAR Cup Series entry in 2020 as it served as a primary sponsorship partner for William Byron and Hendrick Motorsports for a three-season stretch.

“We’re excited to see Hertz and Hertz Car Sales on the No. 42 this summer at Dover,” said?Nemechek in a team press release. “It’s awesome to represent such a recognizable global brand, and even more special knowing it ties into the broader Knighthead motorsport vision that spans NASCAR and endurance racing.”

Hertz, which sponsors the No. 12 and No. 38 Cadillacs in the WEC is happy to expand its motorsports portfolio to once again include NASCAR Cup Series race cars in this new partnership with LEGACY MOTOR CLUB and Nemechek.

“Hertz has a proud legacy in motorsports, and we’re excited to expand our presence by partnering with LEGACY MOTOR CLUB and John Hunter Nemechek for the NASCAR Cup Series race at Dover,” said Gil West, Hertz Chief Executive Officer. “This collaboration not only highlights our iconic brand on one of racing’s biggest stages, but also showcases Hertz Car Sales as a trusted source of high-quality used vehicles. It’s an exciting opportunity to connect with fans and customers through the thrill of racing.”

While the paint scheme has yet to be officially revealed, LEGACY MOTOR CLUB ensures that Nemechek will pilot an iconic black and gold Hertz scheme at Dover Motor Speedway when the team unloads its car from the trailer for practice and qualifying on Saturday, July 19.

Through the opening 19 races of the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series season, Nemechek has been one of the pleasant surprises in the NASCAR Cup Series garage. The second-generation NASCAR Cup Series racer has collected a career-high six top-10 finishes, including his career-best finish (fifth in the season-opening Daytona 500).

Nemechek ranks 20th in the NASCAR Cup Series championship standings heading into this weekend’s event at Sonoma Raceway, which equates to a seven-position improvement from this point in the season a year ago.
