Joe Nemechek - Sprint Cup
Car: No. 87 Toyota
Team: NEMCO Motorsports
Crew Chief: Stephen Gray
Birthdate: 9/26/1963
Country: USA
Outlook
The owner/driver of the No. 87 Toyota will return for a 21st season of Sprint Cup Series racing in 2013. Nemechek made 31 of the 36 events last season, but only competed as a start-and-park team. The veteran has failed to post a Top-10 finish in his last five seasons of Cup racing, so the prospects for improvement are quite small. Nemechek is steadily nearing 50 years of age, so his days of ultra-competitive racing may be over. Unless the sponsorship situation changes drastically he will be reduced to start-and-parking once again this season.
