About Longhorn

Learn more about our history, team, and world-class facility of Longhorn Chassis: all dedicated to get you across the finish line faster.

Our History

Founded by the Labonte family. Built by the team who touch every weld, every measurement, every car. Order to track in under ten weeks, fourteen months running, on time.


2010

Longhorn Doors Open

NASCAR Hall of Famers Terry and Bobby Labonte started Longhorn with Justin Labonte. This new chassis shop was built by people who had already spent a career finding out what holds up and what doesn’t. We proudly opened our doors in 2010 for the world of late model racing.

2022

New Team Members

Steve Arpin, Paul Leach and Jon Leach bought in alongside Justin Labonte, began a new age of Longhorn. Still crafted in the Carolinas, processes got rebuilt around the calendar, not around the backlog delivering better race cars to our customers.

Now

Continuing to Deliver

Roughly a hundred chassis a year leave our Longhorn Shop, and we don’t plan on slowing down. Fourteen straight months of on-time delivery: the number we’re proudest of, because it’s the one nobody else publishes.

Our Mission

“At Longhorn Chassis, our mission is to engineer high-performance racing chassis that empower drivers to win. Through innovation, precision craftsmanship, and unmatched support, we’re committed to pushing the limits of speed, safety, and success on every track.“
