    “Darby, a former chief NASCAR tech inspector, interviewed all five competitors and/or team representatives earlier this week, spoke with DIRTcar officials and visited the testing facility to inspect the testing procedure. He found no evidence to overturn the penalties.”

    That statement alone says a lot to me. I remember when John Darby was with NASCAR, his integrity was beyond reproach and no one ever questioned it. The fact that he visited the facilities and inspected the testing procedure gives this much validity in my book. Why would he put his reputation on the line if he wasn't 100% satisfied?

      I still don't think suspensions are the answer. Not having extra drivers is taking money out of the pockets of the tracks that choose their sanction...especially considering who it is this time.

          I'll still go to the same amount of races with or without these 5 drivers.

              What do you think would be the answer?

                  If you really want to stop it it is the answer. You can't play favorites and be serious about enforcing the rules.

                    ''IF'',the major sanctioning bodies would get together and honor each others suspensions it would go a long way to help stop whatever cheating is going on.If they had to go 60/90/120 or however many days without being able to find a 10k or more race to be able to compete in I think it would make a big difference.As it is now if WOO suspends you,you just go run the Lucas shows and vice versa.I don't see it happening though.

                        This is exactly what needs to happen or the problem will NEVER go away.

                        And I'm with 427. My race schedule won't change because of the penalties. The racers were suspended. Not me.

                          I would love to see these sanctions work together on rules and upholding each other's suspensions. But why is a driver that has been caught cheating by almost every sanction in dirt racing still getting the same penalty as first time offenders? His penalty should be double at a minimum. The guy has had a great career but so did Barry Bonds and Lance Armstrong. I for one will be happy to be at the world 100 and have the story be the racing. And not be about some guy trying to run a lexan window with a window net glued to it, or when the scale was last calibrated,or what lab is testing tires. It will just be about 90 guys trying to make the starting field and bring home the globes.
