CONCORD, NC (August 25, 2010)– Randy LaJoie has been re-instated by NASCAR for competition following completion of a NASCAR-approved treatment program and the satisfactory fulfillment of all requirements for reinstatement.

“I am thankful to NASCAR for reinstating me for competition, and grateful to my friends and family who supported me through this time,” said Randy LaJoie, who was suspended on June 22, 2010, for violation of NASCAR’s drug policy. “This has been a tremendous learning and growing process for me, and I have come through it a stronger, better person. I am looking forward to returning to work, and continuing to prove to NASCAR, my colleagues, my family and my friends that this was an isolated incident that I have put behind me.”

LaJoie will continue to lead the Joie of Seating, the seat design business he founded, and the Safer Racer Tour, a non-profit organization that was designed to help reach out to the auto racers many feel are most at risk; the numerous short track drivers around the country.
