Nov. 4, 1996 *The Labontes celebrate in Atlanta It was a big day for the Labonte clan. Make that a huge day. NASCAR Winston Cup Series drivers Terry and Bobby Labonte swept up all the glory in the NAPA 500 at Atlanta Motor Speedway on Nov. 10 with Bobby, the younger, earning his first victory of the season and Terry, the older, capturing a fifth-place finish that made him the 1996 NASCAR Winston Cup Series champion. Bobby started from the pole, and became the third driver to win his first race of the year in the last three events, joining Ricky Rudd (Rockingham) and Bobby Hamilton (Phoenix). By winning from the pole, Bobby claimed the UNOCAL Challenge Bonus of $136,800 to boost his winnings to a whopping $274,900. That, however, pales in comparison to what his older brother will haul to the savings account. Terry, driver of the Kellogg's Chevrolet, finished two positions behind Hendrick Motorsports teammate and title challenger Jeff Gordon and thus easily claimed his second career title. His first came in 1984 while he was driving for Billy Hagan. The 12 years between his first title and his second is the longest span in NASCAR history. The elder Labonte, who led the point standings by 47 points over Gordon coming into the race, finished with 4,657 points, 37 more than Gordon (4,620). Terry's championship will mean a minimum bonus of $1.5 million from R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Co.'s Winston cigarette brand at the NASCAR Awards Banquet in New York. With that reward, his season earnings total $3,439,213 and that does not include numerous pending contingency awards. "It's just a great day," said the new champion. "It's a great day for myself and all the guys on the team. I owe it to the guys on the team. We had a great run today and we had a great season. I never thought it would take 12 years to win another championship, but I knew I was with a team that could win races and a championship."
A look at the final point standings for the 1996 season:
1. Terry Labonte 4,657 2. Jeff Gordon 4,620 -37 3. Dale Jarrett 4,568 -89 4. Dale Earnhardt 4,327 -330 5. Mark Martin 4,278 -379
