Autoracing Betting Lines

07/23/2010 - Indianapolis, IN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - David Reutimann has signed a multi-year contract extension with Michael Waltrip Racing to remain as driver of the No.00 Toyota through the 2012 Sprint Cup Series season.

Reutimann and team owner Michael Waltrip made the announcement Friday at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, the site of this weekend's Brickyard 400. His primary sponsor, Aaron's, will increase its sponsorship with the team from 24 to 30 races in 2010. Aaron's will remain with Reutimann for 30 races in both the 2011 and '12 seasons.

"I'm glad both Michael Waltrip Racing and Aaron's want to keep me around," the 40-year-old Reutimann said. "I've been asked about my contract for the last month, and we've had a handshake agreement, but now it's done, and I'm glad I can finally talk about it. I'm thrilled."

Reutimann picked up his second career Sprint Cup victory two weeks ago at Chicagoland. He is currently 15th in the point standings. Reutimann gave MWR its first Cup win in May 2009 in the rain-shortened 600-mile race at Charlotte. He has been with Waltrip's team since the start of the 2007 season.

"We never wavered on wanting to extend David and neither did Aaron's," Waltrip said. "David and Aaron's are like family to me. They've both been a large part of Michael Waltrip Racing since the very beginning and have stuck with us through thick and thin."
