I don't really follow Michael Waltrip. What is his future? Is this his last Cup start? Makes me think of the old okierebel Mikey thread. "liers, cheaters...?" What was that called?

I don't really follow Michael Waltrip. What is his future? Is this his last Cup start? Makes me think of the old okierebel Mikey thread. "liers, cheaters...?" What was that called?

It's Mikey last start as a "full-time" Cup driver ...

He still plans to run the races at Daytona & Dega next year ... Mebbe some more ... depending on sponsorship ...
