Labonte's Last Darlington Start
Labonte's final Darlington start:
Terry Labonte, driver of the #44 Kellogg's Chevy, will make his 54th and final Darlington Raceway start Saturday evening. Racing a limited schedule in his last NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series season, Labonte will enter eight more events for Hendrick Motorsports in 2006, including the last of his career in November at Texas Motor Speedway.
Darlington Raceway president Chris Browning will present Labonte with a one-of-a-kind memento during pre-race driver introductions Saturday evening. The piece includes souvenir program covers from significant Darlington races throughout Labonte's career, including his first start, first win, most recent win and final start. Although Labonte has 53 career starts at Darlington, Saturday night's race will mark his first under the lights at the South Carolina track.
Labonte, whose career now spans 29 seasons, did not compete there in 2005 while running a part-time schedule for Hendrick Motorsports. Following Darlington, Labonte will next race for Hendrick Motorsports at Lowe's Motor Speedway on May 28.(Hendrick Motorsports PR)(5-10-2006)
