Michael Waltrip wants to make the 2011 Daytona 500 his last competitive event in the Sprint Cup series	Permalink

From jayski: Waltrip wants to run 2011 Daytona 500: #51-Michael Waltrip wants to make the 2011 Daytona 500 his last competitive event in the Sprint Cup series. "I want the Daytona 500 to be my last race,'' said the owner of Michael Waltrip Racing, who won this event in 2001 and 2003. "I just [don't] want this one to be it. So we'll work on trying to figure out if we can talk someone into sponsoring me for 2011. Twenty-five is a nice even number. Well, not an even number, but it's funny.'' Waltrip, who already plans to run at Talladega later this year, hinted several times during Speedweeks he wanted this to be his last 500. But as he sat through a second red flag to repair a hole in Daytona International Speedway he said the plan is for one more. "I'd like to run Talladega and run here one more time and then be done,'' he said. "That would be 25 of them in a row. That would be cool.''(ESPN)(2-15-2010) I think he missed his wish on the last competitive deal but worse than that we have to listen to DW talk to/about his bro again next year! __________________ JAFO
