NASCAR legend Larry McClure has died at the age of 81.
McClure was a co-owner of Morgan-McClure Motorsports, and oversaw three Daytona 500 wins in the 1990s.
'The Family of Larry A. McClure, former co-owner of Morgan McClure Motorsports, announces with great sorrow his passing on Wednesday, June 25 at Johnson Memorial Hospital in Abingdon, Virginia,' his family said in a statement.
'We would like to thank everyone for their prayers and support during this most difficult time.'
McClure operated Morgan-McClure Motorsports alongside Tim Morgan and his brother Jerry McClure.
Their NASCAR Cup Series team was operated from 1983 to 2012, with the organization notching some big wins along the way.
My heart hurts finding out Larry McClure passed away. He took a chance on me saying “I know you’ll drive the hell out of it.” He gave me a fast race car & back to back Daytona 500s. He was innovative, smart & a hell of a guy. Glad i got to see him last year. gonna miss him pic.twitter.com/b538TPYe5O
