Carl got HAMMERED by Nascar:eek:

NASCAR has issued penalties and fines to the No. 99 Roush Fenway Racing team as a result of rule infractions found last Sunday following the Sprint Cup Series race at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

The No. 99 car driven by Carl Edwards was found to be in violation of Sections 12-4-A (actions detrimental to stock car racing); 12-4-Q (car, car parts, components and/or equipment used do not conform to NASCAR rules); and 20-2.1J (any device or duct work that permits air to pass from one area of the interior of the car to another, or to the outside of the car, will not be permitted. This includes, but is not limited to, the inside of the car to the trunk area, or the floors, firewalls, crush panels and wheel wells passing air into or out of the car) of the 2008 NASCAR rule book. The violations were found during post-race inspection at Las Vegas Motor Speedway on March 2.

As a result, Edwards and car owner Jack Roush have been penalized 100 championship driver and 100 championship owner points, respectively. In the event the 99 team qualifies for the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup, the team will not receive the 10 bonus points for the UAW-Dodge 400 victory used for determining the Chase seeding order. Crew chief Bob Osborne has been fined $100,000, suspended from the next six NASCAR Sprint Cup Series events, suspended from NASCAR until April 30 and placed on probation until Dec. 31.
 
That sucks for Edwards! Especially since he had no real control over it. He just races the car, not build it.

Thats why Osborne is gone for 6 races and not Carl.

Lets face it, its an adantage that they used and put Carls health in jepordy. Im pretty sure Carl could smell oil the whole race too :).

And, as much as I really dont like Gordon I do hope his is overturned!

Prick

Robby got the points part dropped but the fine increased. Someone at Dodge should give him the money for the fine since it was their fuck up. Does Chrysler even have any money left though after giving Newman the millioin dollar bonus though?
 
oh... thats the reason why i hate nascar. 1960 tech, stupid meaningless rules, and fake stock cars.

im going to law school, and i will be suing nascar for fraud, breach of contract, and false advertising.

they are in no way shape or form "stock cars" and there isnt a single production piece on them.

and this is coming from a kid who's dad was an ASA crew chief.

i watch racing without false representation and talent, namely Grand-am and Rally racing
