Kewelowski could learn a hard lesson about NASCAR. Despite the failed inspections, NASCAR is serious about fining drivers for their comments – to protect their integrity. Nevertheless, NASCAR has also been inconsistent with rule enforcement. If the parts are illegal, they are illegal. Teams have been pushing the rules to the limit since the association’s inception in 1949. Moreover, teams will continue to push to gain an advantage on the competition. I think it was Mulhern who tweeted some of this last night - He is my least favorite NASCAR reporter: Quote:

Keselowski and Logano hit with 25 point penalties and Truex hit with a 6 point penalty:
from jayski.com: NASCAR Penalties announced for three teams: Penalties have been handed down to three NASCAR Sprint Cup Series teams following last Saturday's race at Texas Motor Speedway. The #56 car was found to have violated Sections 12-1 (actions detrimental to stock car racing); 12-4J (any determination by NASCAR officials that the race equipment used in the event does not conform to NASCAR rules); and 20-12.8.1B (the car failed to meet the minimum front car heights during post-race inspection) of the 2013 rule book. As a result of this violation, crew chief Chad Johnston has been fined $25,000 and placed on NASCAR probation until June 5. The team has also been docked six championship driver (Martin Truex Jr.) and six championship owner (Michael Waltrip) points. The #2 and #22 cars have also been penalized. Both cars were found to be in violation of Sections 12-1; 12-4J and 20-12 (all suspension systems and components must be approved by NASCAR. Prior to being used in competition, all suspension systems and components must be submitted, in a completed form/assembly, to the office of the NASCAR Competition Administrator for consideration of approval and approved by NASCAR. Each such part may thereafter be used until NASCAR determines that such part is no longer eligible. All suspension fasteners and mounting hardware must be made of solid magnetic steel. All front end and rear end suspension mounts with mounting hardware assembled must have single round mounting holes that are the correct size for the fastener being used. All front end and rear end suspension mounts and mounting hardware must not allow movement or realignment of any suspension component beyond normal rotation or suspension travel.) As a result of this violation and as it pertains to the #2 car the following penalties have been assessed: · Crew chief Paul Wolfe has been fined $100,000 and suspended from NASCAR until the completion of the next six NASCAR Sprint Cup Series championship points events (including the non-points Sprint All-Star Race) and placed on probation until Dec. 31. · Car chief Jerry Kelley, team engineer Brian Wilson and team manager Travis Geisler (serves as team manager for both the #2 and #22 cars) have been suspended from NASCAR until the completion of the next six NASCAR Sprint Cup Series championship points events (including the non-points Sprint All-Star Race) and placed on probation until Dec. 31. · The loss of 25 championship driver (Brad Keselowski) and 25 championship owner (Roger Penske) points. As it pertains to the #22 car the following penalties have been assessed: · Crew chief Todd Gordon has been fined $100,000 and suspended from NASCAR until the completion of the next six NASCAR Sprint Cup Series championship points events (including the non-points Sprint All-Star Race) and placed on probation until Dec. 31. · Car chief Raymond Fox and team engineer Samuel Stanley have been suspended from NASCAR until the completion of the next six NASCAR Sprint Cup Series championship points events (including the non-points Sprint All-Star Race) and placed on probation until Dec. 31. · The loss of 25 championship driver (Joey Logano) and 25 championship owner (Walt Czarnecki) points.(NASCAR) |

They got slapped, hard. But, I think they tried some shit with the full knowledge that they were in for an ass-kicking if they got caught. A lot of top guys got suspended but I'm pretty sure Penske is swimming in engineers.
The points thing is funny- it seems many teams don't worry as much about point standings as before. Now it's just, stay in the top 20 and win a few races and you're OK. |

Kyle Busch is going to a backup. Will get to start where he qualifies later today.

I got offered tickets to a suite to tomorrow's race. If I don't really enjoy watching NASCAR on TV, will I have fun if I go tomorrow?

I have been to 1 NASCAR race and 2 Indy car races there and I have had fun despite not being much a race fan. Just pick a car that isn't in the top 10 at the beginning and root for that car to win.

Follow #18. Kyle Busch races for Joe Gibbs Racing. He is a threat to win every time he enters a race. Besides, he is one of the most talented and exciting drivers to watch during a race. Kyle, nicknamed "Wild Thing" and "Rowdy" for his aggressive driving style - never disappoints. Quote:

I was at trucks today. It was almost ruined by all the cautions. Still a decent finish.
