Sometimes you just need to stop swimming against the stream and find the right place to drift. This guy is drowning fast.

I will admit that "appearing foolish" is something the Waltrip Brothers do excel in !!

NAPA would I suppose really be more "another thread". For this one, we agree on the Toyo/Mikey thing.

In any case, Mikey is still lovin' the trips to the bank.

I am not so sure about that wing....he said last week on Inside Nextel Cup that toyota was not happy and he did not know for sure how long they would hang with him. That is from Mikey....not me.
