AVONDALE, Ariz. -- Former NASCAR champion Bobby Labonte has signed a deal to drive for TRG Motorsports next season.
Labonte has already raced five times for TRG this season, and will finish the year in the No. 71 Chevrolet for a total of seven races.
The car will be sponsored by TaxSlayer.com for roughly half the season. Team owner Kevin Buckler said on Saturday that he'll try to use multiple companies to fill the rest of the schedule.
Labonte drove for Hall of Fame Racing for most of this season in a car that was run out of Yates Racing. Team officials replaced him for seven events this year to give developmental driver Erik Darnell some seat time.
That freed Labonte to work a deal with TRG.
