11/01/2011 - Charlotte, NC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - According to reports from several media outlets on Tuesday, Mark Martin will join Michael Waltrip Racing to drive the No.00 Toyota in a part-time Sprint Cup Series schedule in 2012.
MWR has scheduled a press conference for Friday morning at Texas Motor Speedway, the site of this weekend's Sprint Cup, Nationwide and Camping World Truck Series races.
Martin, 52, is in his third year as driver of the No.5 Chevrolet for Hendrick Motorsports. Kasey Kahne is taking over driving duties of that car, starting next year. Martin has previously said he wants to run a limited Sprint Cup schedule after he leaves Hendrick. He has also considered running partial schedules in Nationwide and truck.
David Reutimann is currently behind the wheel of the No.00 car, but Reutimann's future with MWR is not known at this time. He is now 28th in points, with just two top-10 finishes so far this season.
Reutimann has driven for MWR since 2007. He has also given the racing organization its first two wins in NASCAR's premier series (Charlotte in May 2009 and Chicagoland in July 2010).
MWR's driver lineup for next season will include Martin Truex Jr., Clint Bowyer and Martin. Bowyer is leaving Richard Childress Racing and moving over to Waltrip's team at the end of the year.
Driver/owner Michael Waltrip will likely drive the No.00 car in all four restrictor-plate races (two at Daytona and two at Talladega) next season.
Martin drove a limited Cup schedule for Ginn Racing/Dale Earnhardt Inc. from 2007-08 before signing with Hendrick for the 2009 season.

March Madness odds and printable March Madness brackets
With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
