Two-time NASCAR Cup champion Terry Labonte has been added to the list of drivers scheduled to participate in the M&M's NASCAR Night of Stars at I-55 Raceway in Pevely, Mo., Wednesday.
Labonte will join other familiar names in racing UMP Modifieds at the one-third mile, high-banked dirt track.
Other additions to the race are Labonte's son, Justin Labonte, Nationwide Series driver Steve Wallace and Sprint Cup driver Dave Blaney.
Two-time Cup champion Tony Stewart, I-55 co-owner and Cup veteran Ken Schrader, NASCAR Camping World Series driver and former AMA Supercross champion Ricky Carmichael and Craftsman Truck Series drivers Ron Hornaday, Dennis Setzer and Brendan Gaughan are also scheduled to race.
"Having Terry here for the first time is a really neat deal," Schrader said. "Plus, it'll be interesting to see Ricky [Carmichael] race four wheels on dirt instead of two wheels. It's going to be a lot of fun."
Proceeds from the event will benefit the Special Olympics.
