Petty GMS Motorsports, also known as GMS Racing in the Craftsman Truck Series, is an American professional stock car racing team formed by Richard Petty and Maurice J. Gallagher Jr. and operated by GMS Racing. In the NASCAR Cup Series they field the Nos. 42 and 43 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 for Noah Gragson and Erik Jones, respectively, along with a part-time Camaro with a car number to be determined for team co-owner Jimmie Johnson.

They also compete in the ARCA Menards Series, fielding the No. 43 Chevrolet SS. Their ARCA team also competes part-time in the ARCA Menards Series East and the ARCA Menards Series West with the No. 43 Chevrolet SS.

GMS Racing previously competed in the NASCAR Xfinity Series from 2016 to 2019. The team's driver development program, Drivers Edge Development, is operated in conjunction with JR Motorsports.

Owner Maurice J. Gallagher Jr. is the chairman and CEO of the Allegiant Travel Company, which intermittently sponsors the team through its Allegiant Air brand.

History

Before the formation of his team, Maurice Gallagher was previously involved in NASCAR with local Las Vegas driver and friend Spencer Clark's team when it competed in the NASCAR Busch East Series and Busch Series until Clark's unexpected death in 2006.

GMS Racing, then known as Gallagher Motorsports, was formed in 2011 when they entered ARCA competition. They then expanded their operations into the Camping World Truck Series in 2013, and then to the Xfinity Series in 2016. The team was initially based in Charlotte, North Carolina, in the former BAM Racing shop. The team later moved to another shop, and BK Racing moved into their old shop.

For the 2014 season, the team acquired the assets of Richard Childress Racing's truck series program, and entered a technical alliance with the organization. In 2015, former crew chief Mike Beam became competition director, while RCR and manufacturer Chevrolet increased their technical support. In addition, the team relocated from Charlotte to Statesville, North Carolina near the Statesville Regional Airport. This was the former facility of Evernham Motorsports and later Richard Petty Motorsports, which had been unoccupied since 2010. GMS also began using the number font formerly used by Braun Racing and Turner Scott Motorsports. As of 2016, the No. 21 team in the Xfinity Series uses the same number font as Wood Brothers Racing, alternating with the number style of the rest of the team. In early 2017, the team formed an alliance with Halmar Friesen Racing. This alliance was expanded in August of that year.

In early 2019, it was announced that GMS Racing had started a Chevrolet development program, Drivers Edge Development, with JR Motorsports. Drivers in the program would race in GMS Racing's NASCAR K&N Pro Series, ARCA Menards Series, and NASCAR Camping World Truck Series teams, as well as JR Motorpsorts's Late Model and NASCAR Xfinity Series teams. They would be mentored by Mardy Lindley (GMS crew chief) and Josh Berry (JR Motorsports Late Model driver). GMS Racing drivers John Hunter Nemechek, Sheldon Creed, and Sam Mayer were among the inaugural members of the program.

On December 1, 2021, Gallagher purchased a majority interest in the former Richard Petty Motorsports for 19 million. The deal included both of RPM's charters; the No. 43 continued to operate with its charter while the second charter - which was leased to Rick Ware Racing for the No. 51 from 2019 to 2021 - was transferred to a second car for the team, the No. 42. Following the purchase, the team was renamed to Petty GMS Motorsports.

On September 16, 2022, Kelly Crandall tweeted that Petty GMS Motorsports will use Joe Gibbs Racing pit crews in 2023.

On November 4, 2022, seven-time NASCAR champion Jimmie Johnson purchased an ownership stake in Petty GMS.
