| Positives: Collected 19 top-tens, 2 poles and bonus points in 13 races. | |||
| Negatives: Had a DNF at Pocono, and somehow managed not to win any races this year. | |||
| Comments: Ricky gets back into the top-ten after a 3-year hiatus and garners our Comeback of the Year award for 2000. His stellar consistency allowed him to finish in 5th place without winning a single race. Next year look for the #28 Ford in Victory Lane. Texaco stays on as primary sponsor through 2004. | |||
| Overall Grade for 2000: |
A+ |
