Darrell Waltrip to appear on Speed's 'Trackside' from Daytona

By SceneDaily Staff
Monday, January 12, 2009

Three-time NASCAR Cup champion Darrell Waltrip will join Larry McReynolds, Jeff Hammond and Steve Byrnes as Speed's “Trackside” kicks off the NASCAR season with a series of five special episodes.

The programming will air at 7 p.m. EST Jan. 19-23 from Daytona International Speedway.

“I'm looking forward to getting back to work,” said Waltrip, who along with former crew chief Hammond, will be celebrating the 20th anniversary of their 1989 Daytona 500 victory. “There are so many compelling stories that need to be discussed. With most of the drivers in Daytona for Fan Fest, it’s a great way to kick off Speedweeks.

"Daytona, here we come.”

    I agree with Robert. DW is a NASCAR fixture and I would surely miss him if he did not appear on the broadcasts. Without DW it would be boreing for sure. Go watch something else if you don't like DW. Barbara Floyd

    I don't care what some of you people say Darrell Waltrip was one of the greatest drivers that ever drove on the WINSTON CUP CIRCUIT. Now that he is in the booth with Two of the best(or GREATEST CREW CHIEFS in NASCAR)he is the BEST annoucer that there has ever been. Yes I have been a longtime D.W. fan for over 25 YEARS.

    Didn't much like him as a driver, but I do like him as an announcer. Liked Ned Jarret as I do Dale as announcers. Liked Rusty as a driver, but purely ho hum as an announcer.What I like most is the racing. Let's get it on!!!

    It will be good to get DW back in the booth with Larry Mac some times they really make me laugh. It's like having the good ol boys with all the little tid bits and stories that make nascar races interesting cause lets face it some times its a boring race. It will just be good not to hear Rusty talk about himself all the time. I'll be waiting for the Trackside series to start next week. Thank goodness for SPEED.
