Well Denny Hamlin gets the win at Martinsville ending the Hendrick dominance theremartinsville2015-1

So interesting week to say the least. Biggest topic to say the least had to be the tire tampering as Nascar called it. From what I can gather out of it all teams where either putting holes in tires purposely so the tires would leak air as tire pressures increased or they maybe had check valves  in the tires stems that would do the same.  Nascar did make a warning before Martinsville telling  teams to stop manipulating with the tires. Well as it turns out there was one team that got fined from tires taken from the Fontana race. Ryan Newman and team were hit with a P5 Penalty which essentially takes away 75 points from Ryan Newman the team loses crew chief Luke Lambert and team tire technician James Bender and team engineer Philip Surgen for the next 6 races.

I think the tire thing has obviously been going on for some time, or at least that is the rumor that it is out there.

In the pool we have Fergie One, Chick Hicks,  smokinjoe00, Momia-Mia and Suezie 13.

Rounding out the top 10 we have Ethan Cameron, Three Amigos, Papa’s Ten Man, Lethbridge Racing, and Bumper-Bumper.

Most points for the week goes to Hot Chilli Heat with 284

Biggest gain for the week goes to Hot Chilli Heat up 28 spots.

Biggest slide for the week goes to White Lightning down 36 spots.
