NASCAR 2010

lol yep other than selling t shirts hows has that worked out?

 

Hendrick's got other drivers to win races and championships. Junior is his cash cow for merchandise sales. He could never sniff a top ten again and Hendrick wouldn't care, as long as the fans kept buying up all the 88 crap they can get their hands on.

 

I can't really disagree at all bucko. it will be interesting to see how long that buying will continue if some results don't come at some point.

 

Prediction- Dale Jr. will end up driving for Childress and he will drive the #3 car.

 

jr misses the chase again. no shock. Go sell some more ball caps and blue jeans and live off of daddies name

 

He just needs a new crew chief.That will bring him back.LOL

On Wednesday, NASCAR levied a heavy penalty on Bowyer's No. 33 Richard Childress Racing team, one that may well dim its championship chances which just days ago appeared so bright.

The car passed inspection at the track on Sunday but NASCAR discovered a problem with the way the car body was attached to the chassis once it was taken to its research and development center in Concord for a further and more comprehensive inspection.

Bowyer, who moved within 35 points of series leader Denny Hamlin with his first win of the season, has been stripped 150 driver points and his crew chief, Shane Wilson, has been fined $150,000 and suspended from NASCAR for the next six races and placed on probation through the end of the year.

In addition, car chief Chad Haney has been suspended six races and placed on probation through the end of the year. Team owner Richard Childress lost 150 owner points as well.

With the penalty, Bowyer moves from second to 12th in the series standings, 185 behind Hamlin, with nine races left in the Chase. Robin Pemberton, NASCAR's vice president of competition, said the issue with Bowyer's car actually started a week earlier, following the race at Richmond, Va
