This week, Terry and I lost our Dad. To many of you who knew him around the garage, you know he was larger than life. To us he was our Dad and also a crew chief, a mentor, our biggest fan, our motivation at times, and our hero. He and our Mom dedicated their lives to our racing careers and to our family. We are deeply saddened by the loss of our Dad, although we know he is in a far better place. We thank everyone for their support during this difficult time.

I was there,😊. RF tire went down, went through the wall (bad concrete) flipped over. I ran from pit stall (that’s my brother).😮 Got there before anyone else. Terry gets out, “did I flip over”...yep!!! That happens in big time stock car racing!!

Felt great to get out on the track today with the No. 25 @Cookout team @carawayspeedway
Started on the pole and battled for the lead most of the race. Didn't get the finish we wanted, but salvaged a Top 10.
Can't wait to do it again next weekend @FlorenceMSpdwy

What a great day that was. Texas style😊
On this date in 1996:
@Bobby_Labonte won the NAPA 500 at @amsupdates and Terry Labonte clinched the Winston Cup championship.
The brothers celebrated their special day together with a post-race victory lap.

Going way back this Thursday to 1980 @amsupdates Finished 4th that day, first time there (16years old) front springs had to be out of a Amtrak and rear had leaf springs @markmartin 👍🏻 Is that Morgan Shepard in the background in front of the only porta potty 🤔.

Found this last night, Caraway Speedway, 1982, I was 18 years old racing a late model sportsman (1 race)😂 Jay Hedgecock built the car and @philparsons98 raced it later that year as well. Good times...spent all the money I had=didn’t give up! Cool looking though👊🏻

TGIF. Caraway speedway 1987. Won just enough money to buy tires and gas money, but who cared! Trophy!! Pair of 425 front, 175 and 150 rear. Slapper front bar 1 1/8 @markmartin

Well, @DaleJr I snuck out a few times, one time with a Dale Sr shirt, but I had a cooler and old radio headphones. Went straight out the front grandstands😂
The story of Junior once disguising himself as a @Bobby_Labonte fan so he could slip out of @MartinsvilleSwy undetected is easily my favorite in #DJD history. Good stuff. Keep it coming.
