Big news this week ... The Scene Vault Podcast host Rick Houston will make his debut behind the wheel of the Lonesome Pine Motorsports Park pace truck Saturday! Plans call for every car in every division to carry a Mighty Mouse decal ... as well as a backward pace lap prior to the first race of the day ... in memory of Alan Kulwicki, who lost his life in a tragic plane crash thirty years ago to the day.

In the second installment of our interview, Butch Hylton takes us from the top of the mountaintop by winning the Winston Cup championship with Bobby Labonte to the depths of the valley, after a pretty serious fight with a Kevin Harvick Incorporated teammate.

Hosts Rick Houston and Steve Waid then take a peek into the December 14, 2000 issue of Winston Cup Scene. 

Deb Williams does yeoman’s work in covering Joe Gibbs Racing’s first Winston Cup championship, with coverage of the banquet and features on driver Bobby Labonte, the team owner, crew chief Jimmy Makar and EIGHT employees who’d been with the organization from the very beginning.
