NASCAR "Cheaters"
The crew chiefs on five NASCAR Nextel Cup teams have been suspended. One of them indefinitely. The suspensions are for infractions discovered on the cars after Sunday's qualifying. Until NASCAR takes this seriously and suspends the ENTIRE team from competition it will continue. It is always the same teams. When will NASCAR listen to it's fans and penalize these teams so it really hurts? Are we becoming the WWE?
The points penalties are so small the teams aren't phased. The $25,000-$50,000 fines mean nothing to the multimillion dollar teams. The suspended crew chief can work on the cars all week long. He can have contact with the team during the race. He just cannot be at the track during the race weekend. In my opinion, NASCAR's "punishments" are jokes.
I am pretty sure when NASCAR tells a team their car AND driver will not take the track, the message will be heard.
PS...Carolynn, I know you don't watch! *snicker*

LOL!
Believe me, it was the first thing Frank told me about when he came home from work...so I watched it on the news.
CHEATERS! What an embarassment!!
Another one today. Although, they are calling it a "mistake". After Jeff Gordon won one of the races today, his car failed post race inspection. He will start 42nd instead of 4th in the Daytona 500 on Sunday.
