CommonSenseRacing Posted March 26, 2007 Report Share Posted March 26, 2007 With five races in the books, I thought it was interesting that Michael Waltrip is in the negative column regarding the point standings. Not only is he last in points, but also he has negative 25 points. Good thing for his last name, but I just can’t see how his sponsor can justify staying with him and for that matter how he could land another sponsor in the future. Watching the race on Sunday, they use to talk about who did make the race, know they seem to post it and move on, I guess Darrell doesn’t want to talk about how his brother can’t qualify. Will MW even make another race this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kn1ghtblade Posted March 26, 2007 Report Share Posted March 26, 2007 When it comes down to this guy I guess its better to have the name then actual driving skill or something, I mean how did he manage to win anything and how is he managing to keep his sponsor especially one as big as NAPA??? Whens the last time he actually qualified for a race and didnt use a provisional... BTW did anyone catch the commocial with MW and Sammy Haggar??? That was halarious...

Will MW even make another race this year? Both Talladega races and Daytona....MAYBE. There is hope for him, though. After all, Allmendinger and Mayfield finally made a race, and Jarret didn't need a champion's provisional for once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiTech Posted March 27, 2007 Report Share Posted March 27, 2007 MIKE NEEDS TO GET OFF TV AND SPEND MORE TIME WITH HIS TEAM .

REBELRACER Posted March 27, 2007 Report Share Posted March 27, 2007 maybe he should just get a replacement driver for his car and he can be the spokesman for mwr......maybe with a replacement driver the car will make the race...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazyhorse Posted March 27, 2007 Report Share Posted March 27, 2007 nope. because he'd prolly put k. wallace in it or some other [edited out by Nick Holt, 3/26/07]like ruiteman , or a washed up one timer like jarret (that don't even wanna be there to begin with). he stands a chance of winning a race before anybody that drives for him , or that would replace him would. and at this point making races don't even cut it , he better hope for a couple of wins to keep the sponsors and manufacturers backing - new name plate or not. jmo [edited out by Nick Holt, 3/26/07] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CommonSenseRacing Posted March 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2007 washed up one timer like jarret (that don't even wanna be there to begin with). WOW, I thought I was the only one who thought Jarret had no talent, all the way back to when his father was announcing for NASCAR. You would hear him plug is son, just like DW does for Mikey. The light bulb just went off in my head, that's why Mikey pick Dale, they have so much in common, both had family members who deserved to race and both road in on their coat tails. How the world that guy won a championship is just mind blowing to me. On the bright side, he only has two champion's provisional left and after this weekend he will most likely have one!!!

uhcougs Posted March 27, 2007 Report Share Posted March 27, 2007 I made the comment to my dad that DJ was that talented of a driver to which he replied "but he won a championship" I had to remind him that to win a championship in the years that DJ did all you had to do was win 3 races and finish in the top 10/5 most of the time, and just finish every race of the season. Mikey isn't tat great of a driver and even when he had the short of the stick with the best equipment at DEI he still wasn't that great of a driver. He's not even a good announcer (but then again neither is his brother). Kenny Wallace can drive, I think. I've seen him drive some great races. I mean when he was in roush equipment he finished better than Jamie McMurray... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budman Posted March 27, 2007 Report Share Posted March 27, 2007 When are y'all going to figure out at that level, it has little to do with talent ..................... its all about who you know and how much $GREEN$ you can bring to the table?

TSRS_KLASH Posted March 27, 2007 Report Share Posted March 27, 2007 oldtimer is right /\. He is always on the little talent shows like the one on speed " nascars biggest fan" or something like that. He needs to win, and and use that courage torward the rest of the season ( or just finish or start a race ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
