When NAPA pulled out of sponsoring the 55-car after the Did-Bowyer-Spin-On-Purpose situation, the writing on the wall was there for Michael Waltrip Racing...
The benefactor of the conspiracy, Martin Truex, Junior is now a free agent...
Truex, crew chief Chad Johnston and 15 percent of the workforce were told they can go and get other jobs outside Waltrip's shop. Team co-owner Rob Kauffman said the cuts were across the organization and not limited to Truex's team.
Truex's car goes into the shop for research and development. It will be trotted out for Waltrip to use his sponsor's exemptions to try and get a third car into select races- much like it was before he went after a third car in the shop in the first place.
This is what got MWR in hot water in the first place...

Paired with this... Brian Vickers questioning... really questioning... coming to the pits...
NASCAR fined MWR $300,000 for the alleged stunt, suspended GM Ty Norris indefinitely and replaced Truex in the Chase field with Ryan Newman. And then they went ahead and added Jeff Gordon, too, since Bowyer wasn't punished...
Truex has been talking to Furniture Row about the soon-to-be vacant #78 ever since all these questions came up...
Here's MWR talking about MWR...
