Bobby Labonte Biography
A 32-time NASCAR race winner, Bobby Labonte is one of only four drivers in NASCAR’s history to win a championship in the top two tiers of the sport: winning an Xfinity Series Championship in 1991 and the NASCAR Cup Series Championship in 2000. He then added the 2001 IROC Series Championship to his winning career. In 2020, Labonte received the highest honor in NASCAR when he was inducted into the NASCAR Hall of Fame.
Today, Labonte remains at the forefront of the racing scene. From 2022 to 2023, he raced full time in the SMART Modified Tour, bringing home 4 wins, and a partial schedule in the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour. His broadcasting career has continued to flourish as he makes regular appearances on FS1 as an analyst on the popular Race Hub and Race Day programs. Recently, Joe Gibbs Racing announced Labonte’s return to the family in a newly created role where he will represent the legacy of the organization alongside Coach Joe Gibbs, while working in a development role with up-and-coming drivers.
Labonte’s experience has extended well beyond American soil. As the All-American Race Car Driver, he has made appearances at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, and Europe’s largest pre-season motorsports conference Autosport International. In 2018, Labonte also became the first NASCAR Champion to race a full season in the NASCAR Whelen Euro Series.
From cycling to running, hiking to cross-country skiing, Labonte personifies health, fitness and performance and integrates technology into his training. He is an avid outdoorsman who enjoys hunting and fishing and has appeared on numerous outdoor hunting and fishing television programs with the likes of Realtree and LL Bean.
Labonte is also a devoted philanthropist, launching the Bobby Labonte Foundation in 2003 to benefit local North Carolina organizations who help build stronger foundations for children and families through an annual grant program. The Bobby Labonte Foundation has donated nearly $1 million over the years.
Labonte has represented some of the biggest household brands in America and beyond, and his down-to-earth boy-next door personality makes him one of the most approachable and magnetic personalities in all of professional sports. He has a long and varied list of off the track experiences including speaking engagements, as a parade grand marshal, celebrity driver, and special guest appearances.
Family has always played an important role in Labonte’s life. He is quite proud of his son Tyler, daughter-in-law Bailey and his daughter Madison who have grown up around his racing but are now young adults and building careers of their own. Labonte is married to his wife Kristin, a former professional and champion cyclist. They live outside High Point, North Carolina with their chihuahua Josey.

Bobby Labonte Speaking Topics
How to Get It. How to Apply It to Your Career and Life.
Bobby and Kristin Labonte have both reached the highest levels of success as professional athletes, and they’ll be the first to humbly tell you that their successes were possible because of two things: teamwork and fortitude. Audiences connect with this dynamic husband-wife duo and are delighted at the yin and yang of Bobby and Kristin’s personalities as they share stories from their decorated careers, lessons learned along the way, and how they now apply what they learned as athletes to drive success in business.
Kristin won her first horse show national title at age thirteen, and in the years that followed she earned an NCAA D1 collegiate swimming scholarship where she competed at the national and international level. After college, Kristin turned her passion for winning to triathlon, and then professional cycling – first earning All-American honors, then three US Masters Cycling National Champion Titles and a World Championship in the final race of her decorated athletic career.
For thirty+ years, Bobby has been a highly-regarded professional athlete and corporate spokesperson. With wins at the highest level of NASCAR, including a NASCAR XFINITY Series Championship, an IROC Championship, and the 2000 NASCAR Cup Series Championship driving Number 18 for Joe Gibbs Racing, Bobby was inducted into the NASCAR Hall of Fame in 2020.
Kristin holds an MBA from Duke University and leads in business today. With courage and drive, she looks at every opportunity with curiosity. She explores winning scenarios and then uses her talents to pull together a team committed to excellence. She’s not intimidated by adversity either. Challenges become opportunities to showcase her skills as a brilliant strategist.
Bobby’s success continues off the track as well. His tenacity and resilience allowed him to rise from a kid in the garage sweeping floors to a racing champion, and now a sought-after television racing analyst and magnetic brand ambassador. He’s grounded and relatable, making him an ideal partner for national brands and he brings his compelling charm to every event!
Together, they run Breaking Limits, a brand strategy and experiential marketing agency, and the Bobby Labonte Foundation, which has raised more than $1 million for organizations that support children and families.
Kristin & Bobby are fierce competitors who are driven to succeed, and the Labonte’s most impressive wins today are fueled by their mutual respect for each other, their dedicated teammates who are inspired by these two champions every day, and well-earned fortitude!
