After parting ways following the Toyota/Save Mart 350 at Infineon Raceway in June, Labonte and TRG Motorsports have agreed to campaign at the upcoming races at Pocono (August 1), Michigan (August 15), Atlanta (September 5), and Texas (November 7). For all four races, the car will feature the familiar red and black paint scheme of TRG sponsor Taxslayer.com.
For Team Owner Kevin Buckler, continuing with Labonte and Taxslayer.com is the right fit.
