Bobby Hamilton Junior drove it last year with very limited success. By the way, it hasn't been a Ford for several years as Cal Wells switched to Chebby. I don't believe Tide is sponsoring a car this season. I certainly don't recall seeing it for Daytona qualifying. I recall hearing that Wells sold the team (for its owner points) but I can't recall who to.
From Netscape Sports.....
Published November 24th, 2006 in NASCAR
Sunday’s “Ford 400” at Homestead-Miami Speedway was likely the final ride for Cal Wells and his PPI Racing Team.
Longtime sponsor Tide announced a few weeks ago that it will leave the team (and the sport) at the end of the season, and Wells has been unsuccessful in securing a new backer for his struggling Nextel Cup team.
Sources close to the situation say Wells informed his employees that he will close the doors later this week, after a hoped-for sponsorship deal fell through.

Tide decided to discontinue its sponsorship of a vehicle in Nascar as of 2007. They have been a sponsor since 1987, so it must be a big loss to Nascar. Tide has sponsored big-time drivers such as Darrell Waltrip and Ticky Rudd. To bad they left because the big Tide label and the orange and yellow circle looked great on a Nascar.

Travis Kvapil did last year but he left to race a truck for Jack Roush this year. Tide has left as a sponsor this year and it doesn't look like they are going to get back into NASCAR. According to jayski Cal Wells, the car owner, has had no luck finding a sponsor and might not field a team this year.
