Legacy Motor Club made another competition change with its NASCAR Cup Series team.
A statement from the organization’s CEO, Cal Wells, announced Tuesday morning that “Legacy M.C. and Dave Elenz have parted ways, and the organization would like to thank Dave for his stewardship of the No. 43 over the past three seasons.”
Elenz and Erik Jones recorded one win in three seasons and 21 top-10 finishes. His departure comes two days after a fifth-place finish in the YellaWood 500 at Talladega Superspeedway. Jones is 30th in the championship standings.
Ben Beshore is moving to the No. 43 team to crew chief for Jones in the final five Cup Series races.
Beshore had been working on the No. 42 team with John Hunter Nemechek. Because of the move, Brian Campe, who was recently announced as the new technical director of Legacy Motor Club, will serve as the interim crew chief on Nemechek’s team — currently 34th in the championship standings.
