#88-Dale Jarrett said he has talked to quite a few people about driving for them next season but would not say whether he has signed with Michael Waltrip Racing. Waltrip said Friday that he had talked with the Robert Yates Racing driver but had not signed him to run a second Toyota out of the Michael Waltrip Racing stable in 2007. “People know when the last year of your contract is, so they start talking and seeing what your interests are, especially in my case,” Jarrett said Saturday following qualifying for the Aaron’s 499 at Talladega. Jarrett said that he probably would make a decision in the next two or three weeks and that sponsor UPS is not necessarily tied to him. “That’s Robert’s sponsor,” said Jarrett, referring to his current owner. “They came here because of what we accomplished at Robert Yates Racing, and that hasn’t been a factor in determining what I’m going to do. The offers that I have had from everybody else aren’t contingent upon bringing a sponsor.”(SceneDaily.com)(4-29-2006)
