KHI tire changer’s injury minor:

Gary Labretone, front tire changer on the #33 Camping World Chevrolet Silverado team, sustained an ankle sprain last Friday night during the team’s final pit stop in the Sam’s Town 400K at Texas Motor Speedway. Labretone jumped in excitement after the team’s stop put Ron Hornaday in the lead exiting pit road and landed awkwardly as he came down. He was taken to the infield care center and returned to the pit stall in time to celebrate the win with the team. Labretone’s status for this week is unknown, but alternate changer Tim Sanders will be suited up and ready if needed.(Kevin Harvick Inc. PR)(6-9-2008)
