    I hope it's something more serious than pot.

    Not because I don't want to see Dinger back, but suspending drivers (or any sportsperson) for testing + to pot is just laughable in my mind.

    It's funny AJ hasn't said a word about this yet? This would open door for Ambrose to Penske. As ford wants to keep him

    No one will say a word until the time has expired to request the B sample test. If they are smart anyway.


    When NASCAR members test positive for an "A" sample, they are notified by NASCAR medical review officer Dr. Douglas Aukerman and have 72 hours to explain the test and request a "B" sample. The medical review officer can choose to inform only the driver or crew member who failed the test. Drivers with positive "A" samples in the past have resolved them by providing evidence such as medical prescriptions, and positive tests can be cleared without NASCAR or a team learning about it.

    In the case of Allmendinger's positive, NASCAR took the extraordinary step of temporarily suspending the driver from Saturday night's race in the midst of the process.

    It marks the first time a driver has been suspended temporarily suspended while waiting on the "B" sample. That means Aukerman also informed NASCAR of the test because he was concerned about the safety and integrity of competition. NASCAR then can choose to suspend a driver temporarily because of "exigent circumstances" — in this case, the concern of someone possibly being imparied while driving a stock car at 200 mph.



    Sounds like we have another meth head in the house eh?

    Certainly not prescription!

    I'm very surprised, but a little hopeful this might lead to an opening for Marcos.

    Logano, Ambrose or even Kenseth in the 22 next year IMO

    I think Keselowski and Kenseth would be a hell of a team.

    Think Kenseth still goes to 20

    Penske may make a play for Logano

    Yeah you are probably right.......The main thing for Kenseth is a reliable sponsor. Home Depot and Pennzoil would probably provide that for him.

    Marcos might be better off as lead driver at RPM in a Dodge than the third guy at Penske.

    Roger seems to love Brad and Sam.

    Penske needs a top-notch talent imo, younger or proven

    no offense to hornish or ambrose

    putting dinger in there was bad enough, hornish wont be any better results wise

    unless hes happy having an average #2 and #3 car

    I think Hornish will do better than AJ has but just my opinion. Can see him in Penzoil car as that was his sponsor when he was in Indy cars
