Let's get real. Pemberton "personally insulted"? Give me a freaking break, the Pembertons have been cheating since they came to NASCAR. What a crock of crap. And the sanctimonious B.S. from Richard Petty ranks right up with Pemberton's holier than thou line of tripe. Petty should talk about fuel, after getting caught with a sneaky pete nitrous setup in his door at Daytona. Nevermind getting caught 50 CUBIC INCHES over the limit and KEEPING THE WIN at Daytona.
If that crying whiner Pemberton's feelings are hurt, the candy assed sissy needs a new job. He's been a cheating crybaby his whole career.
Gordon had a PART FAILURE. I don't even like Gordon, and I'm not the only one saying it. He lost anything he gained for the 500 by winning that race when they put him in the back. He didn't gain points for winning, and he was already in the damned race.
Evernham has a point. The bolts they got busted for were used last year, so the penalty for that infraction was not justified. However, the aero tricks they tried were something they should have gotten busted for. Same thing with crybaby Jack Roush and his bunch, they did it, they knew it, they got busted. He ought to shut his whining pie hole and pay up like the rest. Jack Roush is one of the kings of cheating in all of motorsports. He sucks the life right out of any area of the sport he gets involved in.
Waltrip only got off a little light, because he got a slightly smaller point penalty than Kranefuss got a few years ago for the same thing, only probably worse. It's a MUCH bigger penalty now, because of the "top 35 in points guarantee". As it stands now, he's still -27 points, or something over 220 points behind Harvick. He's somewhere around 57th in points now, so he could run well almost all year and still be at risk of missing a race because he's not in the top 35 in points. So this penalty will put them in a HUGE hole ALL YEAR.
