If that were true, it would be easy to find an article about it or info on a lawsuit.

Google can't find either.

Big story for this race is the tire compound scuffing off too much...there is rubber all over the place. See this pic of the 88 car ROOF, showing the marks the rubber marbles are leaving on the cars...

Looks like Kenseth's coming again.

Fast Kasey smashed the wall. CAUTION!
