Waltrip - Another DNF

	DEI tells this driver he needs to perform OR he will lose his job. How do they expect him to perform if they can't give him an engine that will run the course of the race. I am starting to wonder if they (DEI) are helping him not perform. Very disappointed, Amy.

Napa loves that guy. I'm surprised they didn't keep Mikey in the Napa car and switched crews with Truex.

	I tend to disagree with that one. Michael gets the same amount of attention on both networks. I don't think that DW plugs his brother in excess. The only time they talk about him is if he is in the top 10 or blowing up. Both of which he has been doing this year Amy. 20car wrote:> Mikey will get less attention in the second half of the season when TNT and > NBC take over....no more DW pining for his bro

Do you really believe that every driver - or any driver for that matter, mentions every sponsor that is on their firesuit or their car?

That doesn't keep me from finding Mikey a VERY likeable person (not to mention handsome) I cheer for a whole passel of drivers when bad fortune strikes, such as flat tires and out of gas, bad pit timing & then a caution etc .. never anything like wrecks. I hate wrecks.---- But Mikey isn't one of those. But I never cheer for him either. I probably would if he changed owners.

The man who writers your pay check isn't important.. Then Nextel shouldn't have it's name on the race! See how much you enjoy racing then. I think Mikey is as good or better than most. If they gave him Jr's car, he'd probably be the best out there. He never gets to the top based on how many people he shoves out of his way. And he doesn't abuse his pit crew either.>

That's because Jr had a very dysfunctional crew relationship. Jr's crew relationship is based on aversives expletives deleted Mikey , even after he explodiated continued to feed his crew helpful information while it was fresh in his mind, to further his team advancement. This is far more positive feedback and helpful that You S* of a B*****E gave me a piece of trash car Mikey drove the wheels off his car yesterday. He went down fighting. Obviously things need to change at DEI. But even though they switched teams, my bet is Jr STILL gets the best of the parts, cars and setups while Mikey remains R&D driver. A lot of cars blew up yesterday. I'm not blaming it on Mikey. JR Might have blown up too, if he had gone fast enough and spent more time on the track instead of the pits.

See how much you enjoy racing then.> Well - you took what I said and you stretched it to an extreme statement that I never made. I never said the folks who write the checks are not important. I only commented on the way that sponsoring whoring is done today by some drivers. You'll note that while they all mention their sponsors, some take that much further than others. I'm a Gordon fan but he is one who takes it too far as well. When they cannot answer a simple question or make a simple statement without getting 7 sponsor's names in, then it's gone too far. Again - watch, not all drivers feel the need to do this. BTW - I have enjoyed racing for decades - even before the current rage of over emphasizing sponsors. Even through it. I think Mikey is as good or better than most. If they gave him Jr's car,> he'd probably be the best out there. He never gets to the top based on how> many people he shoves out of his way. And he doesn't abuse his pit crew> either. That's good. That's what fans are supposed to do - believe in a driver. But... if he never gets to the top by pushing people out of the way (which I pretty much agree with), then why would he need Jr.'s car or anyone else's car? He's won races, he's run up front. If it's by clean racing that he gets there, then by definition, he has the car. Giving Michael any different car is not going to help him anymore than the 15 car is, IMHO. It's a powerful car that has demonstrated itself over time now. -- -Mike- mike6963REMOVE@alltel.net

I fully agree that the switch was done to benefit Junior. Jr figured Mikey had a better team than him, that worked well together, wanted the switch. Bad things loom for JR this year.> Jr's problem is his mouth. NOT his car, NOT his team, and NOT his driving.> Jr has a hot temper and potty mouth. Jr probably would have won last year> if he didn't keep penalizing himself with his temper. I agree that Junior has probably alienated his crew with his comments. I don't know which came first, the chicken or the egg though. Not sure if the Eury's were taking advantage of a good thing, or if they were responding to Junior's tirades. Guess we won't really know since we're not on the inside. It will be interesting to see what plays out with the team switch though. I'm not really expecting a lot, since by and large I don't believe team switches have really accomplished much over the years. Kurt Bush is one who benefited from that tactic but I think that was more that he benefits from Jimmy than from the idea of a switch. Martin certainly has not benefited from getting Kurt's team. Likewise with RCR when they made the big whooplala over switching teams. I just don't believe the whole idea of switching teams is all that great. -- -Mike- mike6963REMOVE@alltel.net

He's contended all along that he was building his Busch team up to be his "life after DEI" project. Whether or not he takes it to Cup or not, his own racing team is his retirement plan.
