When will Michael Waltrip finally win another race?

Question

Last time he won in the cup series was the race that Earnhart Sr. died in at Daytona. He had a second place finish a couple weeks ago, and got caught up in someone else's wreck last week. I'm ready to see another top 5.. Does anybody else think this is possible?

Answer 1

I have to agree with Army,  it may take most of the field wiping each other out.  Unfotunately for Mikey, he was invited to the prom by Toyota and they strung him along till a "prettier girl", ie.  Gibbs Racing came along.    

The he got dropped faster than a piece of tofu at a fat chick's convention.  

He needs to pare the team back from 3 cars to 2.

I really like Mikey,  but he's never been one of the top tier drivers and I don't see him becoming one before his driving days end.

Answer 2

I agree that MWR probably needs to pare down to just 2 teams.  Toyota screwed Mikey royally - they could have been pumping the money into MWR last year like they are now at JGR.  I like Mikey, and would love to see him win another race or two before he retires.  His best opportunities will obviously come at restrictor plate tracks, but look for more gutsy calls like the one that netted him the second place finish for staying out on track hoping for rain...

Answer 3

I think it is definitely possible...and hopefully soon.  I like Mikey!  He's got the Toyota power, and he does have good driving skills.  It's just a matter of getting the two to mesh.  New crew chief, maybe?

Like I said, I hope it's soon.

Answer 4

i think he's more worried about Reutiman winning a race than he is himself

mikeys like that

Answer 5

When the other 42 cars in the field wreck

Answer 6

Umm dude the last race Mikey won was in 2003 and was at Talladega!! I think it's possible and i know he can do it. Maybe at Talladega in October.

Answer 7

If he's going to win another race, it will be at Talladega later this year. But sorry, I wouldn't get your hopes up.
