"Winner, winner Joe Gibbs Racing are cheaters!'' the Dawsonville Pool Room tweeted.

In an extraordinary decision for a NASCAR Cup Series race, Joe Gibbs Racing driver Denny Hamlin had his Pocono win thrown out and runner-up and teammate Kyle Busch also was disqualified after their Toyotas failed inspections.

The only good thing to come out of NASCAR for the past several years is, “Let’s Go Brandon! FJB!”

Cheating prevails. I remember when A J Foyt got caught using Nitrous Oxide in his NASCAR race car and disqualified.

SSDD. NASCAR essentially died the day they mandated restrictor plates.

So they all race the same cars, no innovation allowed.

Isn't that what they used to call IROC? Everyone drove the same Camaro or whatever.

That's why they call it "stock" car racing, because they're all built from the same stock parts.

Except that a "stock" Toyota does not use the same parts as a "stock" Chevrolet or a Ford or a Dodge.

That was part of the beauty of the way stock car racing was back in the day. Richard Petty put Mopar on the map.

The nooses hanging from their rear view mirrors didn’t help their causes either. Bubba found them.

The races are going to become even more fun when the pit crews have to charge the batteries mid-way through. Fans will one day go to see the lithium fires instead of crashes
