It's all about aerodynamics — how the car slips through the air. Teams do wind-tunnel testing with their cars, so they know exactly how the air runs over the car bodies — and exactly how to bend different parts of the body to make it go through the air more efficiently.

It is why NASCAR supposedly is very strict about checking the contours of the car body with templates to make sure they conform to the rules. This cheating occurred after the car had already been checked with the templates.

Dale Jr. won that race wire-to-wire. For those who know anything about NASCAR, you'll know how extraordinary such a feat is. If the car was that exceptional due to cheating that three Officials witnessed and did nothing about, then it calls the integrity of the entire sport into question.

If I was a sponsor I'd be asking more questions.

Have you ever seen them scrape the wall... and then a guy takes a hammer to the inside of the wheel well beating it up and out away from the fender? Ever wonder why the NASCAR guys dont' come over and re-template the fender?

I think you need to get a grip and a fresh shot of reality.

...and if you really payed any attention at all lately, you'll know that the DEI cars have ruled the restrictor tracks in the past few years. "Wire-to-wire" would not be a far stretch (especially with the lack of competition in a Busch race) and it proves, more than likely, that any adjustment by the crew member had no effect at all in the outcome.

Sport? R U $hitting me? Car racing is a SPORT? Next thing you know, you all will be calling the drivers "athletes".....

Love the crash scenes though.....
