Terry Labonte returning in No. 45 Dodges

The Charlotte Observer

Thursday, May. 15, 2008

Two-time Cup Series champion Terry Labonte will extend his career one more time as he fills in for Kyle Petty in five of the seven races that Petty will not drive beginning at Dover on June 1.

Petty will skip the Dover race for the wedding of his daughter, Montgomery Lee, then will work with TNT for its Cup coverage for six races.

Chat McCumbee will drive the No. 45 Dodge at Dover and at Chicagoland Speedway on July 12. Labonte will drive at Pocono, Michigan, Infineon, New Hampshire and Daytona.

Labonte will team with his brother, Bobby, who drives the No. 43 Dodges for the Petty Enterprises team. The Labonte brothers ran as teammates at Joe Gibbs Racing when Terry drove five races for that team in 2005.
