the person i went with and who follows nascar told me that they leave it up to the drivers to eke out punishment, so if someone is a jackass one race, someone will take him out...i dunno but i dont that idea and basically, this all fits in with teh whole "entertainment" and maufactured entertainment of nascar.
just a diff attitude to racing it seems, and much so for the show.

I think it was pretty cool how JV didn't get a penalty. Reminds me of classic F1
