Steven Wallace to make Cup debut

Steven Wallace to make Cup debut: During SPEED's SPEED Report show, Bob Dillner reported that Rusty Wallace's son, Steven, a regular in the Nationwide Series, will attempt to make his Sprint Cup debut at Richmond International Raceway on May 1st. Steven will run a car from Rusty's team, Rusty Wallace Inc. and plans to attempt four other Sprint Cup races in 2010, no word on those venues.(SPEED)(2-28-2010)

I think he's better suited to Nationwide ~JMO

Better watch out when your favorite driver is racing around him (if he makes the show...)!

UPDATE - Denied: per Greg Wallace of Rusty Wallace Inc/ Rusty Wallace Racing: "At Rusty Wallace Racing, we continually evaluate opportunities that align with our strategic objectives, including a future involvement in the Sprint Cup Series at some point. However, there are currently no plans for RWR to field a Sprint Cup entry in 2010. As for Steve Wallace, our focus remains on making Steve and the #66 5-Hour Energy Toyota Camry consistent contenders for the 2010 Nationwide Series championship."(RWR)(3-1-2010)

Good!!!!!

Too bad he didn't run for ROTY this year....... then the award wouldn't be as much of a mockery

True point. Is Conway the only one running for it?

I believe so.

Good thing the rumor has been denied... I can't imagine the carnage Steve would cause in Cup cars.

Kevin Conway and Terry Cook are the two ROTY candidates this year. To date, though, Terry Cook hasn't made a race.

I forgot about Cook. Just imagine a few years ago we had Kenseth vs. Jr, Johnson vs. Newman, Bowyer vs. Hamlin, and now the one this year...

Biffle vrs McMurray
Harvick versus Busch

2007 was the last time we had a good driver and/or field of rookies (relatively speaking) Stremme was the worst rookie that year and if he woulda waited until this year for his rookie season, he would have easily been ROTY. Possibly contended last year.


JOHNSON WAS NOT ROOKIE OF THE YEAR!!!!!

Somehow I don't think Johnson is bothered by it too much
