NASCAR.COM - Notes: Busch, Sauter fail post-race height inspection - Jul 1, 2007

LOUDON, N.H. -- The cars of drivers Kyle Busch and Johnny Sauter failed post-race heights inspection following completion of the Lenox Industrial Tools 300 on Sunday at New Hampshire International Speedway.

But before anyone goes too crazy over the news of the infractions, spokesman Ramsey Poston of NASCAR cautioned that the failures of the two cars did not appear to be nearly as serious as the ones earlier this season that led to large fines, 100-point driver and owner penalties and up to six-race suspensions for teams for messing with the template of the Car of Tomorrow.

"Both cars were too low in the left front," Poston said. "But we don't consider this tampering with the integrity of the Car of Tomorrow. It's not that kind of an infraction. It's more of what we would call a competition infraction."

Basically the same thing that the #83 car was disqualified for, but they won't get a severe penalty? opcorn:

I knew Nascar wouldn't be consistent with their penalties.

Better not have that crap happening when Junior gets in that car. I love Hendrick equipment, but their cars fail inspection way too many times for my liking. I don't want Junior's car failing inspection all the time! :furious3:

I don't really recall the #5 car failing inspection many times...

Of course, today was one of the few times this year the car made it to the end of the race in one piece TO fail post-race inspection... :wacko:
