Tire samples are usually a random deal. The samples are tested much like a go-no-go carb guage. The labs don't describe WHAT foreign chemicals are found, only that there ARE. A team can appeal, but THEY have to pay for a lab to test and IDENTIFY the particular chemical found. I doubt they would overturn the decision though. The rule says NO chemicals. That includes WD-40, Tide, Mr. Clean, PineSol, Crisco(yes we used to use it on the outer sidewalls), or any other stuff. Also, I seriously doubt ANY of the drivers had anything to do with juicing the tires, the crewchiefs would be the ones making the call.

This is my story and i'm sticking to it!

Thanks for the info. I am assuming then they will be able to run at Florence for the Lucas events.

Id like to know the names of the drivers / teams that passed the test ....

Good to see they're looking for guys who cheat but agree that I don't buy that they're checking across the board until they suspend one of their own. I have no problem whatsoever inhaling dirt and dust that always gets kicked up but I do have a problem if there are chemicals in that dust. I would say each series better start paying attention to this problem before it really becomes a problem. These guys are not only cheating they are harming others. All series' better start being more proactive and enforcing this rule. They need to crack down now and put an end to it. 3 month suspension is laughable. A year would be better but if you suspend them for two years or life, it will stop immediately. Cant do that though. That would be too harsh and could make people upset. No responsibility anymore.

I like Bloomer a lot but if he is guilty he should be done. Way too many chances. I like all these 5 guys a lot but this is a bunch of BS. Grow a pair of balls Lucas/WoO and wake up. Do you want to put and end to it or just keep handing out suspensions all the time?

Yes, Lucas series is not involved in any way except for their drivers being caught at another event.

We were tested at I-80 last year. Lucas does a pretty good job.

How many times has Bloomquist been caught?

Is this #4 or #5 now? Once a cheater...always a cheater! IDIOT!!

[clayman2]

i mean u guys dont think that they juiced all them tires just for Eldora do ya ? o yea rite they would never run those ties at a lucas race !!!!!

[dirtracefan21]

how many times has owens been caught also

I believe this is #2 or 3 for the "Newport Cheater"!

So let me get this straight.........another poster said that an official named Sam was walking around the pits , snipping tires and putting samples into ziplock baggies.

Well that sounds like a very legit way to collect samples......doesn't it?
No possible way any of those samples could be tainted or handled incorrectly........right?

If samples collected and sent off are a must, I for one would like for there to be a little more accountability throughout the chain........not saying there is foul play, but the collection and submission system being used is certainly ripe for it.

Watched them tecing cars for Nascar... 2oneT of a inch..ALL the rules .. LOTS of cash needed.. And they cant under stand why 60% of the seats are not full..If they want this to STOP you gone for a Year 10,000 fine... JUST do it...

Fan of driver A supports tire testing when driver B gets caught.
Fan of driver A says tire testing is BS when driver A gets caught.
Priceless.
