I swear if they keep letting Chase and the 9 team get away with stuff every year I'm gonna stop watching the sport. Something has to be done.

Waiting for someone to call them cheaters.

You beat me by about 3 seconds.

 

[AdoubleU24]

I will say, between the lugnut thing and this, that's a whole lot of points left on the table. Unfortunate.

Administrator Betty in the office falls on the knife to save face for Hendrick Motorsports.

“administrative error”

“unintentionally allocated”


Mhhmmmm sure

You lost me. Both teams were hit for 25 points and $50K. How is that 'getting away with stuff'?

Lol sarcasm. Feeding the crowd that thinks, still, that NASCAR shows Chase Elliott favoritism. Even after the countless penalties the last 5 years.

Gee ... I don’t know where to start.

So many of us are candidates. Please note intentional use of the pronoun “us”.

Yes, but that is why he will win the next race at Watkins Glen to make up for it.

There are bound to be some chicken noogies in there somewhere.

Nuggie.

Noogies are in a completely different category.

Things happen by accident at HMS?
No

 

[Truex_rox]

Oopsy, just dropped a whole engine in there lol.

Tell that to Larson at Talladega.

Tell that to Larson at Talladega.

I’m not even sure what that means. I normally don’t watch plate races.

Sheet of metal left blocking air to radiator. Used during transportation I assume to keep radiator clean and was supposed to be removed before the race.

That’s a little different than swapping mills

Yes. Still happened by accident at HMS.

 

[BobbyFord]

Yes. Still happened by accident at HMS.

Except only one of those incidences was by accident

 

[hmmm298]

Honestly I'm undecided on this. I just can't understand what they would have gained from it.

Nookie or Nooky is the bestest form of the word.

You mean we're giving away free nooky here?

 

[Greg]

Chase mistook a piece of tungsten for lead once so I can see him getting the engines getting crossed up.

 

[aunty dive]

Allocate this engine to the 48.

 

[jws926]

Oopsy, just dropped a whole engine in there lol.

I just hate it when that happens.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Allocate this engine to the 48.

Holy **** that was a pucker moment

Go back a few posts; it's chicken nookie. Still interested?

Nothing. But if you have a special engine why not let all the drivers try it?

 

[28car]

Both are in the chase
And points reset in chase (am I right about this)
So, guessing to see if nascar would notice

It’s not cheating, it’s innovation in motion

 

[28car]

Hhhmmmm
Remember last year the HMS self reporting of too much wind tunnel time

Were they testing the new front end being used now

hmmmmm

 

[28car]

Maybe nascar should have taken 25 chase points

 

[Daytripper]

Maybe nascar should have taken 25 chase points

Why? The infraction didn't happen in the chase, makes no sense to take away chase points. What if a team not in the chase commits the infraction? How do you make the punishment equal?

 

[28car]

Just my thinking
if intentional as being said in this case, then ok.

but.
if their “innovation” was not a mistake
The end goal of the “innovation” is to win a championship
I don’t think this mistake would be made in the last 10 races
