The 43 Days of Daytona - 16th Place in 2005

Over the 43 days leading up to the Daytona 500, I'll be doing a short review/preview of the Top 43 Drivers of 2005.

----------------

Joe Nemechek
#01 - US Army

Nemechek ran the complete season with the MB2/MBV racing team. He was the highest climber of the three cars in that stable.

He had 1 pole, 2 Top 5's, 9 Top 10's, and no wins in 2005. His winnings came to $4,223,380.

There's no big news surrounding Joe Nemechek. He's in good equipment and he has talent. He has great teammates to work with this season in Sterling Marlin and Bill Elliott. I'm not sure, but based on age this might make Nemechek the junior member of that race team. They are the anti-Young Guns.

Will sponsorship be big enough to allow the team to field a car every week? Yes, despite the announcement that the U.S. Army would no longer be a NASCAR sponsor, they will maintain their sponsorship of the #01 car.

Do I think he could go win a championship? No...the equipment is good...but not that good.

Do I think he could win a race or two and have a good season? Yes. Joe can win.
