CORNELIUS, N.C.
(October 15, 2007) –
Justin Labonte will make
his third career NASCAR
Craftsman Truck Series
start in the No. 00
Aaron’s Lucky Dog Toyota
Tundra at Martinsville
Speedway this Saturday
afternoon.
“Getting back into the
Aaron’s Lucky Dog truck
is something that I have
been looking forward to
for awhile,” said
Labonte. “My last race
in the Toyota Tundra was
at O’Reilly Raceway
Park, where we finished
27th finish,
but I am confident we
can improve on that
and bring home a solid
finish for the Darrell
Waltrip Team and
Aaron’s.”
The Aaron’s Lucky Dog
Toyota Tundra team has
had some recent
success. Josh Wise, who
shares the seat with
Labonte and Ken Butler
III, has raced the
Aaron’s Lucky Dog Toyota
Tundra into the top-10
two out of the last
three races. Labonte
hopes to add to that
success.
“This team has posted
great finishes lately
and I want to continue
that streak for
Aaron’s,” said Labonte.
“I enjoy racing and this
is a great opportunity
for me to gain more
experience. The team is
really supportive in
helping me grow and
become a better driver.”
Labonte, the son of
two-time NEXTEL Cup
Series champion Terry
Labonte, has never raced
at Martinsville
Speedway, but has two
previous Craftsman Truck
Series start and 76
Busch Series starts
behind him. The North
Carolina native looks
forward to learning the
track and bringing home
a solid finish for
Aaron’s.
