Default Earnhardt docked 100 points, crew chief fined, suspended

http://sports.yahoo.com/nascar/news?...&type=lgns



Personally, I have always thought he was an ok driver, but I have always said he is a little overrated and living in his father's shadow. What I mean is that if his Sr. wasnt such a great driver and died, I dont think he would have been nearly as big as he is... Still, nascar isnt dicking around with cheating, are they?

i was just reading this on yahoo, Jr is WAY overrated, don't get me wrong hes a good guy and hes not a bad driver by any means but you go to a store and see how much merchandise and things he has or how big his name is but when does he ever win a race?

Did he get the penalty for incorrect brackets for the rear wing. It did not go into detail, or I read it to fast and went right over it. Let me know. I am paying to much attention to EBay right now, auction ending in less than 30 minutes.

Yeah, they put the wrong brackets on. And Hanson, you hit it dead on brotha, that is what I have always thought but figured there were some Jr. fans here, so I didnt want to start anything...

And what's this about him maybe leaving DEI? Going to a Ford or another GM team, new team with Bud or something?

Anyone thinkmaybe he could win in a Dodge?

Just what is a NASCAR Dodge packin under the hood now a day's, what cylinder head and bore stroke are they using? aren't they compression ratio ruled, what is the cr?
