I agree with that. I'm going to wait and see what these guys are actually convicted of and what the punishments are before I say much more. Things have run amok in this game far too long, and I'm guessing a few are going to be held up as scapegoats in an attempt to clean it up.

that's what i'm figuring as well, that they are being used to set an example.
tracks are supposed to be controlled by their states commission. things have been allowed to slide for too long. there has to be consistent rules, and fitting punishment and fines. and jokers who repeatedly violate should be out of the sport. does racing really need patrick biancone for example? jeff mullins? asmussen? if it takes a few heads to roll to let people know they can't keep getting hands slapped and nothing more, so be it.
