Travis Mack named crew chief for John Hunter Nemechek at Legacy Motor Club
Legacy Motor Club announced Tuesday that Travis Mack will serve as crew chief for the No. 42 team and John Hunter Nemechek for the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series season.
Mack will replace Brian Campe, who sat atop the pit box for Nemechek for the final five races of the 2024 season. Campe, Legacy’s newly appointed technical director, filled in for Ben Beshore, who moved to the No. 43 team following the ousting of Dave Elenz.
Mack, 41, has held crew chief roles for JR Motorsports, Trackhouse Racing and Kaulig Racing. He most recently served as Kaulig’s technical director and crew chief for Shane van Gisbergen. Mack has called 156 races in the Cup Series, recording one win with Daniel Suárez in 2022. He has an additional 11 top five and 31 top 10 finishes.
“I’m looking forward to helping LEGACY MOTOR CLUB build something great,” Mack said. “There are a lot of talented people here at LEGACY M.C. I worked with Jimmie [Johnson] at Hendrick Motorsports, and I know his work ethic and determination. So his vision for the CLUB is really exciting, and I’m ready to get to work.”

“Travis is a welcome addition to LEGACY MOTOR CLUB,” Legacy director of competition Jacob Canter said. “As we continue to make changes and evolve on the competition side, the goal is to place the right people in the right places.
“That will take some time, but we are thrilled to have a talent like Travis on board and can’t wait to see what he, Ben and the rest of the engineering team can accomplish over this short off-season.”
