You could burn a fatty, snort a line of coke and do 2 shots prior to the test, but you'll still race because the results won't be back for at least a week. I think the sole motivation for so many to support this is because they hate one man. They sincerely believe they can stop a certain man from TN from winning if they can catch him dirty. The sanctions have even gotten so caught up in the anti-bloomer movement they wrote new provisional rules at GIS because he showed up late and used a provisional, which he earned. Later he was so sick from his injury he had to be hospitalized. They should all be ashamed for being so hateful and getting caught up in social media gossip.
    Probably the most ignorant post ever, but considering the sourceLucas doesn't want to lose Scott. He is their money card. Their star attraction. Love him or hate him, he is their superstar and they want him on the tour.

    Scott was late on Friday, they enacted the provisional rule on Sat. He cut his hand on Sun. and went to hospital on Monday. So sick he had to be hospitalized? He was given a I.V. for a infection. Yeah, shame on Lucas Oil.

      I was thinking the same thing, his injury had nothing to with him being late.

      I've said it before, I respect the hell out of his driving abilities, but outside of that, he's a clown.

        Those that think this is a good rule must believe there are drivers racing under the influence....

        Who are those drivers?

          Racing and drugs go hand in hand. I guess it is linked because both give a thrill and are risky?

            That doesn't answer the question, who are those drivers?

              I agree with drug testing as long as the drivers gets to have a indepandent drug test done at the same time. Meaning WRG does their test and then a represenative from WRG rides with the driver to a indepandent lab and gets a test done right then and there.

                Chip, How will you feel about Lucas when they start drug testing? They are following suit with WRG.

                  Great move by WOO and WRG. Drugs of any kind should not be mixed with any professional sports. I am sure this was done because competitors don't want it and knows it's is going on. The big question I have who was the driver that refused to take the test? Because that shows guiltiness.

                    With all the nay sayers spouting out about drug tests. How many of you partied with any driver during the wee hours of the night? One in the same, alcohol and drugs!!!!!!

                        Drugs are illegal. Alcohol is not. Just sayin

                          Sometimes some of the simplest things can bring back a positive test. Like something in a food item

                            Regardless falls in the same category. Depends where your from, and what drug. I drive everyday on drugs, it keeps me alive.

Why can't it be taking a stand for principle? These drivers are NOT employees working for the sanction, they are independent business owners and like I pointed out before, a test at the track isn't going to stop you from competing against someone possibly being under the influence. Maybe next week you all will feel safer, but I don't trust either sanction to be fair and honest, they've already demonstrated a knee-jerk style to rule making and ignorance when it comes to suspension rules and character issues in regards to tire testing. I personally don't drink or use drugs, but I am a libertarian who doesn't go for being pushed around.Stede
                              Well good for you Chip.
