NASCAR has to look into the possible Penske fix. And yes, this may jumble things up quick. They have to resolve this before the next race starts.

Dodge is coming back to NASCAR with the Charger next year or so I hear.

So NASCAR finally has its own Black Sox scandal.

Point shaving, taking dives, and dropping fly balls all wrapped into one.

NASCAR’s as fake as pro wrestling. I’m doing something worth doing besides sitting in front of a TV watching a bunch of cheaters. When they get caught, why are they still allowed to race?

The rumor is Childress is going to Dodge, and Furniture Row is going with him. I don’t know if Childress has signed a new contract with Chevy yet, most of the stories about this are a few months old. Anyway, the Gen 6 Dodge is a good looking car.

Thanks for the ping and thread. Great work.

Yeah, the situation w/Logano & Gilliland is fluid. They’d have to do something today re: penalties if they’re a gonna do it. This mess is really starting to stink. Maybe its just the smell of rotten egg on Nascar’s face. Gordon really should be seething now.

Race attendance for next year - 95% probable for wife and I to hit the Sonoma race.

They'll just fine the Penske team, but Logano will still be in the Chase. This is totally unlike what happened with Michael Waltrip Racing, where there was an obvious team order to cause a spinout (which is very dangerous given Richmond International Raceway is only 0.75 miles around for one lap) to affect the outcome of the race.

The penalties against MWR had nothing to do with the spinout, it had to do with the pitting on green to change the race order so Truex would make the chase. Insufficient evidence on the spin to penalize it.

Not sure yet, I haven’t looked that far into it.

Bristol is on our bucket list also.

We are due to attend a race East of the Missouri - have done New Hampshire - but we were just in New York a couple of weeks ago. It’s tough to plan with my wife’s schedule but we should have more flexibility (famous last words) next year. We enjoyed Sonoma last year. It’s an easy two day drive for us plus we get to steal veggies from one of Eureka’s famous gardens on our way back. Plus, my wife gets to go shopping...

Aarons and Five Hour Energy also released statements that they are reviewing their relationship with MWR. There seems to be an internet campaign under way in an attempt to intimidate the MWR sponsors into dropping out. A lot of the comments on the various web pages have been downright awful.
