Stremme in the #26 at Bristol? NASCAR's entry list for the Food City 500 at Bristol Motor Speedway lists David Stremme in the #26 for Latitude 43 Motorsports. Boris Said had driven the first four races, but has never made a start at Bristol.(3-15-2010)


Waltrip to qualify the #55 at Bristol: Michael Waltrip is listed as the driver of the #55 Prism Motorsports Toyota on the entry list for the Food City 500 at Bristol Motor Speedway. Waltrip says on his facebook page: "Michael Waltrip Racing Looking forward to Bristol. Our guys are traditionally strong there. I'm qualifying the Prism 55 to get to know the guys and prepare for Dega." Waltrip will run the #55 Aaron's Toyota for Prism Motorsports at Talladega in April.(3-15-2010)

Very interesting decision by the 26 team. Not sure what they're gaining by pulling Boris out of the car. He does a good job keeping the car in one piece and running when they're able to run.

As for the 55, no surprise since Michael will be racing for them at Talladega. Notice the "will qualify" wording in the release -- sounds like they will be starting and parking this weekend anyway.

The 55 start and parks every week anyway, with or without Waltrip at the wheel.

How is Mikey going to build a relationship by S&P?

Hopefully, this will just be a 4th MWR car with the Prism name on it; otherwise, it is pointless.

If the 26 is just going to start & park, does it really matter who the driver is?

well they have a sponsor so maybe, just maybe they won't S&P

The sponsor on the 26 is not a paying sponsor. The team is donating the sponsor space to the Air National Guard.

Matt --- I agree. Don't see the point.
