FORT WORTH, Texas – Former Cup champion Bobby Labonte said he has liked working with the TRG Motorsports team in the few races he has run in the No. 71 car this year and it has shown him enough to make that car a possible seat for him in 2010.

Now whether he actually drives for the team, which has indicated it wants to sign him for 2010, is still to be determined.

Labonte, whose car will be sponsored by CBR MotorCars this weekend, said he wasn’t sure when he would know what he’s doing in 2010, but he felt confident he would have a Sprint Cup ride. Labonte is still considered to have a chance at the No. 1 Earnhardt Ganassi car and the 2000 Cup champion’s name is often mentioned with any other possible opening.

He drove most of this year with Hall of Fame Racing, which has used Yates Racing to field its cars this year. He will run the final three races this season for TRG Motorsports, where he has had four starts with finishes of 18th, 22nd, 43rd and 10th.

“It’s a really good group of guys,” said Labonte, who is 30th in the Cup standings and will start 28th in the Dickies 500 on Sunday at Texas Motor Speedway. “They work hard. We’ve just got to sustain that. I like them. They like me. They’ve got a great product to offer and I’m just trying to make sure [I go to] the right deal.”
