    So NASCAR is going to just keep the cars going around-and-around under caution and let the laps tick off?

    Yep, but they would certainly red flag it once within ~ 20 laps if still not dry.

    Should of red flagged it after a few laps when you bring out drying equipment. This is why NASCAR doesn't get my interest much these days.

    I think they'll red flag it as soon as they're sure Stewart and Edwards can both make it without stopping again :rolleyes:

    I was not thrilled with all the laps lost under caution but it was a great race overall and I'm happy for Smoke although Carl would also be a worthy champion.

    I'm not sure why people are trying to spin this into a scandal. it's NASCAR's playground, they can fine as they see fit; and I'd rather see it done in private, especially for off-track infractions, then have to listen to all the talking heads and radio show pundits chime in every time someone posts something mildly offensive on twitter.

    +1. As long as the stay open about on-track and tech infractions (i.e. things that directly effect the racing) I see no issue with behind the scenes fines. NASCAR is just trying to protect the "show".

    Yet aren't they (A$$CAR) playing the abusive mother figure in that they should not be questioned when in fact they are very well in the wrong?? I find it a sad sad sad state of affairs when living in the country of 'my freedom of speech shall not be infringed upon' one should be fined, one of the reasons I HATE A$$CAR.

    Frankly imho if I were an A$$CAR driver and I was fined for speaking my mind/the truth I would quit that series so fast it would make their head spin.

    I used A$$CAR because I think they are sucking more and more with each passing race, atleast until they get FI.
