Bobby Labonte was driving like a maniac those past few laps and then the flip really put it over the top for him. I have the last 70 or so laps on tape. I just don't have Junior's interview. It cuts off when he is doing burnouts.

Can you believe how scary this had to be for Bobby Labonte, on his roof just thinking ok when are the barrel rolls going to come.

I was only 3 when I watched this race and I will always remember this wreck and sr's

Favorite driver ever. I remember being like 7 looking at the tv. My dad goes, Who do you like? I just pick him because he had the best lookin car. I got older and i stuck with em. He's not too good anymore ever since Gibbs dropped em. Not sure if he'd be able to make a comeback. But My favorite racer. Does anyone else agree that late 92-2001 was the best years of racing. Rusty, Earnhartd, Jarrett, Waltrip, Labonte(s), Mark Martin. Best Years. Wish i was alive earlier to see it all

@Ultimate23Dragon Thanks! I just did some more research - he made it past the front-stretch grass, but couldn't make it to the finish line!

[Ultimate23Dragon]

@iProjectMobius He did not. I have the entire race on video tape, so I'd know.
