Apparently General Mills did not like Mears coming to their car from the Kellogs car. So they made the switch to keep the sponsors happy.

I have no respect for bowyer after he made the comment about waltrip. Waltrip did not cause Mears to wreck it was the other way around. Bowyer is a joke

Didn't see the comment Bowyer made about Waltrip but I believe Bowyer is far from a "joke". He came on strong last year and while he isn't doing as well this year he is still doing a respectable job. The four team format should help all RCR drivers with an added team to do test and share notes. I hope Mears can do well at RCR, I was surprised to see him sign with a top flight team again.

I am really excited to see Mark Martin with Hendrick. Would love to see him win a championship at Hendrick and retire on top.

Well lets say this about him. Mears wrecks waltrip and bowyer makes a stupid comment about waltrip. How many cup races or daytona 500 has bowyer won? zero and waltrip = 2. until bowyer wins something big then he needs to shut up and drive

Bowyer actually has two cup wins, but I agree with you. thumbsup.gif

Now don't go confusing us with the facts panther'sdad. LOL! One could also do a comparison of races ran vs. races won with Bowyer and Mikey... that would not be in Mickey's favor. I like Mikey but he has never had the talent his brother had and his team has not done well since it formed.

I promise you I am not sticking up for Bowyer, to be honest with you I can't stand the guy. Now Mikey is one of the most likable drivers ever, no he couldn't even hold his brother's helmet as a driver. Unfortunately his teams aren't doing well. On the other hand he is the ultimate sponsors pitchman. He can be barrel rolling down the track and still get in a" guess I need some new napa auto parts for my toyota , a cold coke and a fresh set of fruit of the looms. lol

Well lets see his team is only a couple yrs old. They are improving though

Mikey needs to stay in the booth and get out of the car. Follow Kyle Petty's lead...

Thats crazy. Mikey is doing just fine. His team has come along way this season and with the moves being made right now he will be a contender to win some races next season.
