Bobby Labonte said he is no longer agonizing over whether he will stay at Petty Enterprises or drive for someone else next season.

Labonte, speaking prior to the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Pit Crew Challenge, said he is likely within two or three weeks of having final answers concerning his driving career beyond this season.

“We’re trying to get things squared away at Pettys, like I’ve always said,” Labonte said. “But obviously we have to get that done. In a couple of weeks, three weeks maybe, we’ll have a lot more answers. … Right now, I’m pretty much at ease.

“… It’s just a matter of things happening that’s going to take place, whether you like it or not. I’m about to the point if it happens, it happens and if it doesn’t, you do something different. I’m not worried about that as much as the talk about it from the outside trying to make sure that the guys that come to work, that they don’t read the paper and say, ‘What’s going to happen?’ ”

Labonte’s sponsor, General Mills, is heading to Richard Childress Racing next year, and it has been speculated that Labonte would join the company. But Petty Enterprises officials have said they’re confident Labonte would return and Labonte has said nothing to indicate he is leaving.

“Nothing is done yet – nothing that can be [said] because of the implications [on] people,” Labonte said. “We can’t implicate people that are doing things that will [mess] them up and our own position. I have nothing to report yet. Hopefully in the next few weeks, it will be a lot more well known.

“But right now, we’re trying to make sure we’re doing the right thing at the No. 43 car.”

This is it. For the final time in his long career, Dale Jarrett will strap in a NASCAR stock car and take the green flag. The 1999 Cup champion last competed in a points-paying race at Bristol in March, but this Saturday’s NASCAR Sprint All-Star Race will be Jarrett’s final race.

The reality of closing a career that began in 1984 is setting in, Jarrett said. The two months of being out of the car have helped prepare him for the finality.

“When I got out at Bristol, even with all the wonderful tributes and stories, I knew that I had this race left before it was over,” Jarrett said. “I’ve been out of the car for a little while now, so it’s something that I’ve started to adjust to, starting this next chapter in my career.

“The all-star race was just a perfect race to end on for me personally as well as from a sponsor perspective. This is a race for the fans, and it’s a great way for me to say thank you to them for the career they’ve allowed me to have.”
