Ya know, I really don't care all that much for NA$CAR but this is getting absolutely ridiculous. They fine people because the fenders are an inch or two too wide? C'mon! At this rate NA$CAR will soon have a set number of these roundy-round funny cars made, kept under lock and key between races and doled out the week before a race after which they'll confiscate them until the next one. There's nothing stock about these cars and hasn't been for almost 30 years. To combat the boredom, the drivers are being promoted just like wrestlers.
Way back in the Stone Age when I was a kid, everybody who knew of this sport was deeply interested in whether it was a Ford, Plymouth (remember them?), Chevy, Hudson, Pontiac or Dodge winning. The drivers were secondary although they had to be cool as they were driving faster than we'd ever gone. Where'd it all go 'wrong'?

Cheating!
what's that spell? m o n e y!
Isn't NASCAR about cheating and skirting the rules. I think a number of drivers and crew chiefs have admitted that trying to sneak something by is part ot the "game", like deliberatly forcing someone off the road (the famous "rubbin is racin'"). The rules are there, stupid as some of them are, and they are meant to be followed. These are all smart guys who have been in the sport a while and have car parts designed on and made by computers, so it's tough to believe that "accidently" got some dimensions on their cars out of spec. They broke the rules and got caught. Why shouldn't they get punished?
