Avondale, AZ (Sports Network) - Bobby Labonte will drive for TRG Motorsports full-time in next year's Sprint Cup Series campaign, with TaxSlayer.com sponsoring his team's efforts in a limited number of races.
Labonte, the 2000 Cup Series champion, and team owner Kevin Buckler made the announcement Saturday at Phoenix International Raceway.
"Each time I've run with the team this year, I've enjoyed the experience and I'm looking forward to filling the seat full time next year and really building on what we've started," Labonte said.
Labonte drove for Hall of Fame Racing, which is partnered with Yates Racing, for a majority of this season. He has driven the No.71 Chevrolet for TRG in five races so far. Labonte, currently 29th in points, will finish the season with the team.
