I wouldn't call them sellouts. I would call them "washed up" and "unproven". Dale Jarrett, IMHO, has never been that good, and is one of (if not the most) boring drivers to watch, ever. Michael Waltrip is a fair driver, but as weird as they come, and his brother is an IDIOT!!!! Jeremy Mayfield is fair, at best. AJ Allmendinger is new, so who knows. And the best driver they have, Brian Vickers, is great. He actually races (unlike Dale Jarrett), and is fun to watch.

As far as "Domestic fans" not wanting Toyota to race. . . . .I remember the same thing happening on the west coast when GM introduced the GTO in the D1 drifting competitions. Every time the GTO went out on the track, it got booed. . . . . I don't understand it, competition is a good thing. . . .
