Jimmie Johnson is having a familiar number on his car for the 2027 Daytona 500. Before the Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Rick Hendrick announced that Johnson will drive the No. 48 for Legacy Motor Club in the 2027 Daytona 500. Now, a former sponsor is teasing a potential return.
On Monday, the official Lowe's X account posted a tweet saying, "[Ally Racing], [Carvana Racing] need an ally for a last ride? Check your DMs." Based on the responses from Ally Racing and Carvana Racing, it certainly appears that Johnson's final NASCAR Cup Series race could be even more special.
Nothing is official, but if Johnson could drive the No. 48 car with sponsorship from Lowe's, it would be an amazing tribute. Even a paint scheme of the seven-time
Cup Series champion's iconic No. 48 Lowe's car would be sensational. Either way, it appears that Lowe's is planning something special for Johnson.
