@FlexaySexay The current back straight was the old front straight. They turned the backstretch into a double dog leg like charlotte and texas and moved the start finish line.
dude you do not understand how long ive been lookin for this race...terry labonte was my all-time favorite racer growin up & this has to be my favorite racin moment in ever...lol...thanks for postin this race...PS: GO HMS!!!
This is one of my all time favourite moments in NASCAR, what with Labonte winning the race, and the other Labonte winning the title. Thanks again for sharing!
@kornnut43 In 95-96 he was sponsored by coke. I used to collect racing champions diecast cars and they released 2 versions.. the first one and then a second one with coca-cola across the decklid. I believe Pepsi picked him up in 97 or 98.
@de31168 Yep, I remember seeing the Coke logo on his car and thinking "damn, I prefer Pepsi"... he then subsequently showed up at Daytona with Pepsi sponsorship, and a classic Pepsi commercial. The two have been paired ever since.
Maybe the Busch brothers should act more like the Labontes
