Richard Petty to join Thad Moffitt for big NASCAR announcement in 2023

Richard Petty is scheduled to join Thad Moffitt for a big NASCAR announcement on Saturday, December 9th, 2023.

[autotag]Richard Petty[/autotag] may not have as much to do with Legacy Motor Club anymore; however, another NASCAR team is poised to emerge from the Petty name. On Saturday, December 9th, Petty and his grandson, [autotag]Thad Moffitt[/autotag], will reveal a new NASCAR organization and detail its alliances, partners, and plans for the 2024 season.

The announcement will occur at the historic Petty’s Garage as Moffitt seems poised to become a driver in one of NASCAR’s top 3 levels. Moffitt only has four starts in one of NASCAR’s top levels, which all came in the Truck Series during the 2022 season. The 23-year-old driver also spent much time in the ARCA Menards Series from 2020 to 2021.

This new team comes as the Petty family celebrates 75 years in NASCAR during the 2024 season. One idea is that Moffitt could compete full-time in the NASCAR Truck Series as he has never driven above that level. As for a possible number, the No. 46 truck would be ideal as No. 42-45 are taken. The announcement will begin at 11:00 AM ET.
