Labonte in for Waltrip again

I guess it won't be for just the road courses.  Previously, Michael Waltrip Racing had said that Terry Labonte was going to drive the #55 in the road course events, now they just announced that he will be in the car for Waltrip for the Indy race.

I think this is wrong.  They are only using Labonte for his past champion provisional, just in case they don't make it on time.  I wonder how many more races they'll have him in the car?

I realize the sponsors want the car in the race, they are spending all that money to sponsor the car, but I think it's time for them to step it up a notch and tell Waltrip to step out of the car for good and just run the organization.  Find a young driver and give him a chance in the car, enough using semi-retired drivers to get into race just because they have a provisional to fall back on if they don't make it on speed.

I guess Waltrips complaining may pay off though, NASCAR is actually thinking about changes to qualifying, taking Waltrips suggestion about all the drivers without a guaranteed spot going out at the same time instead of scattered throughout qualifying.  No definite word, but they did say they were thinking about it.

Your thoughts?
