  • What will Mikey's penalty be for the broken spoiler?

    I know NASCAR almost never takes a win away, but the rear spoiler on Michael Waltrip's truck was definitely out of spec at the end of the race last night and NASCAR has a history of not caring how something got that way. Will there be a penalty for failing post-race inspection, and if there is, what do you think it will be?

    none - it was a "celebration" of winning the 500 - the day Dale died - you want to ruin that?

      I think they are either going to pull that stupid NAPA commercial he is in (with him, gulp, dancing) or make him get a real haircut.

        His hair's been that bad ever since he had any. You want him to change now?

            Good choices all. That dancing in the NAPA ad is, in the words of the eTrade Baby, haunting...

              That wasn't a broken spoiler... it was Dale pushing him to the win!

                    And the answer to the question is a 25 point penalty for team owner Billy Ballew and a $25,000 fine for crew chief Doug Howe.

                      And, of course they had full control over that rear spoiler, and it's damage, right?

                        How about correcting his lisp

                            Was it damage, or a manufacturing defect, or built that way on purpose? Is it NASCAR's responsibility to figure out intent, or do they enforce the rules; you're either in spec or out of spec?

                              Every one of the brackets fell off the truck. If that's not fishy then I don't know what is.
