Ryan Newman penalized after failing post race inspection



Due to the right rear quarter panel being too high in post-race inspection following the Samsung 500 in Texas, NASCAR has issued fines and penalties to the # 12 Alltel Dodge team. Driver Ryan Newman and car owner Roger Penske have been penalized 25 championship driver and 25 championship owner points respectively. Crew Chief Roy McCauley has been fined $25,000 and placed on NASCAR probation until Dec. 31st.

The penalty drops Newman from 8th to 10th in the points standings with 876 points. He is now 189 points behind leader Jeff Burton.

All I can say is "Ah..Newman!"
