Michael Waltrip and NAPA move to BDR

[Georgia Griz]

NAPA must really love Mikey to move from DEI to Bill Davis Racing (BDR). The rumors are that Waltrip will introduce Toyota to the Cup Series in 2007. I guess that he will drive a Dodge in 2006? I'm happy for Waltrip and hope that this new partnership works out for him. With Dale Jr. not being the best teammate and DEI dragging their feet on the contract extension, I've been very proud of the way Mikey has conducted himself this season. It would be very easy for him to be a bitter man. Any guesses on what his car number will be next year? His future teammate Scott Wimmer pilots the 22. Maybe 92?

Guess this means the end of those Waltrip/Earnhardt NAPA commercials. Though I don't care for MW (or think he is that great of a driver), I think DEI may be a sinking ship

Does this also mean no more teaming up on the only tracks they seem to be consistent at...super speedways?
