Seven-Time NASCAR Champion Jimmie Johnson Expected to Race More in 2026, Eyes San Diego Street Event
Seven-time NASCAR Cup Series champion and Legacy Motor Club co-owner Jimmie Johnson has expressed a strong desire to continue racing in the NASCAR Cup Series in 2026. Johnson, who has run only two races this season, is particularly interested in competing in the inaugural NASCAR street race at Naval Base Coronado in San Diego, a location near his hometown of El Cajon, California. He emphasized the importance of securing a third charter for Legacy Motor Club, which would enable him to run more races and help develop team members, crew chiefs, and drivers. However, the team is currently involved in a legal dispute with Rick Ware Racing over the acquisition of one of Ware's charters, which could impact plans for expansion. Johnson, turning 50 in September, acknowledged the possibility that the San Diego race could be his final Cup start but stated he has "more years" in him and is hopeful to continue competing. Despite some uncertainties, Johnson remains optimistic about his racing future and Legacy Motor Club's growth.
