Kyle Petty to miss June 1 race for wedding
It won’t be in Dover, but you can bet that Kyle and Pattie Petty will be celebrating during the May 30 – June 1, 2008 race weekend.
Montgomery Lee Petty, named after great-grandfather and racing legend Lee Petty, will be getting married on Saturday, May 31, 2008. Montgomery Lee is Kyle and Pattie’s only daughter.
Nuptials aren’t the only thing taking Petty away from the track this season. He announced this season that he will be missing six Cup races in order to serve as an analyst on TNT’s race broadcasts. In 2007, he started 29 out of 36 races as well.
Petty won his first NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race in 1986 and has gone on to win seven more Cup races since then. His last win came at the Monster Mile, on June 4, 1995, in the Miller Genuine Draft 500. The memorable win, which ended with an ailing Petty in Victory Lane needing oxygen, saw him come from the 27th starting position to take the checkered flag.
