Bowyer joining MWR in 2012

Autoracing Betting Lines

10/07/2011 - Kansas City, KS (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - After months of speculation, Michael Waltrip Racing revealed on Friday that Clint Bowyer has inked a three-year agreement to drive the team's No.15 Toyota in the Sprint Cup Series, beginning in 2012.

Bowyer and team owner Michael Waltrip made the announcement at Kansas Speedway, the site of this weekend's 400-mile Sprint Cup race. Bowyer will join David Reutimann and Martin Truex Jr., making MWR a three-car operation full-time next year.

"Michael Waltrip Racing is a growing team that is hiring a lot of the right people and on the brink of breaking out," said Bowyer, who hails from nearby Emporia, KS. "I know I'm joining it at the right time."

MWR also announced that 5-Hour ENERGY will serve as primary sponsor for Bowyer's team.

Bowyer has driven for Richard Childress Racing in both the Sprint Cup and Nationwide Series since 2004. He won the Nationwide title three years ago.

The 32-year-old has been a full-time competitor in NASCAR's premier series since 2006, scoring four victories, 90 top-10 finishes and two pole positions in 210 starts. Bowyer qualified for the championship Chase in 2007, '08 and last year. He finished a career-best third in points in '07.

Bowyer missed out on this year's Chase. He is presently 13th in the point standings.

"This has been a very long summer, but I think for everyone involved, the best decision was made to be at Michael Waltrip Racing," he said. "I've been with one organization [RCR] for my entire Sprint Cup career, and leaving there was the hardest part of the decision. But now I'm ready to start the next chapter in my racing career."

MWR entered Sprint Cup competition at the start of the '07 season. The team has two race wins so far -- both from Reutimann.

"This is a watershed moment for our young organization," Waltrip said. "Clint is a proven winner and consistent Chase participant. He had a lot of options, and it makes me proud that Clint and 5-hour ENERGY chose to race with us."

MySportsbook.com: NBA Championship Odds

With the playoffs about two months away, the top two teams in the Western Conference are the clear cut leaders to win the NBA Championship. The Dallas Mavericks have the best record in the NBA (44-9) and have been absolutely scorching since the second week of the season.  What makes the Mavs’ record more impressive is the fact that they dropped their first four games of the season.  Currently they have won 17 out of their last 18 and are MySportsbook.com’s favorite (2-1) to win it all.  Right behind the Mavs are the Pacific leading Phoenix Suns (39-13).  Last season, the Suns lost in the Conference Finals to non-other then the Mavericks four games to two.  Of course the Suns were without center Amare Stoudemire who has is averaging 19.9 PPG and 9.5 RPG since coming back from his knee injury.  Unlike the Mavs, the Suns have struggled a bit lately having lost their last three and four out of their last seven.  Of course the main reason for their three straight loses is due to the absence of two time MVP Steve Nash, who is out with a shoulder injury.  Heads-up, the Mavs have beaten the Suns in both of their meetings this season.

In the Eastern Conference, the Pistons (32-19) are the favorites to win it all at 6-1. The addition of Chris Webber seems to have been a good move for the Pistons.  Since coming over from the 76ers, Webber has averaged 13.1 PPG and 7.3 RPG and the Pistons are 11-4.  Even though the defending champion Heat are currently on the playoff making cusp, they are the Eastern Conference team that is getting the most action to win it all (9-1).  The fact that Shaquille O’Neal is back in the starting lineup after missing 39 games probably has something to do with this.  No doubt, Shaq makes a difference when in the lineup as their winning six out of their last seven would indicate.
