Don, good points. Safety has to be the first priority, that is why I can't understand why they are not converting to the spoiler more quickly. It isn't as if they haven't used rear spoilers in the past. They all understand how they work and as the weeks go by, the wing appears to be more of a concern than they previously thought.

Carl Edwards is a very popular and well respected driver in the NASCAR community. For 61% of respondants to say that the punishment was too light indicates a lot. Look at Terry who admits to watching NASCAR every week. He is so upset with this situation that he is completely turned off. Carl is one of my favorite drivers and I think he got away far too lightly. A 3 race ban would have probably been appropriate for his actions. I have to admit that if Brad had just spun around, no one, including me, would have looked at this twice.
