DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (AP) — Jimmie Johnson and his Legacy Motor Club race team welcomed Creed to NASCAR with arms wide open.
So singer Scott Stapp and the rest of the multi-platinum rock band filled them — they handed Johnson an autographed guitar.
Johnson, a two-time Daytona 500 winner, joked he quickly needed lessons.
84 Toyota on the scoring pylon and now the band and the seven-time NASCAR champion are in the Daytona 500.
Legacy Motor Club reached an associate sponsorship deal with the band to give Creed a spot on the Toyota for Sunday’s Daytona 500.
