Line 57:
Despite the success of 1998, Hardy's team closed its doors, and Barfield return to Gloy to pilot the #55 [[Icehouse Beer]] Ford. He had two top-tens but was released late in the year, and finished the season driving for [[Rick McCray]]. He started 2000 driving for his own team, but ran four more races, his worst finish a 27th. He made his final truck start the following year at [[Darlington Raceway]], finishing 22nd in a truck owned by [[Team 23 Racing]]. After not racing in 2002, Barfield made seven Busch starts in 2003, the first five in a car owned by [[Stanton Barrett]]. After running two more races in the #73 car, Barfield disappeared from the NASCAR circuit.
He now runs a racing shop in [[Timmonsville, South Carolina|Timmonsville, SC]] and in 2006, purchased an overgrown site that once was the site of a four-tenths mile dirt track in nearby [[Dillon, South Carolina|Dillon]] (1966-73, 1977-80). Barfield rebuilt the track, paving it, where today it runs as the [[Dillon Motor Speedway]], hosting local and national (PASS) (Super) Late Models.
