| On the surface, yes. I find it hard to believe he's using though. I'll wait and see.
With Kenny Wallace possibly subbing for the 29 and Hornish filling in for the 22, I'm sitting by the phone hoping SPEED calls me to sub in. | |

| Innocent until proven guilty. I just don't see A.J. as one that uses. Wouldn't have thought that of Jeremy Mayfield either though. | |

| | I get it!
| Question not so much for this race but in the future. If a driver is suspended this close to the start do the people who picked that driver get points for whoever replaces them?

Ok I know Meth and smoking are light yrs apart but even quiting nail biting is hard. Ok sorry ! Im all over the rd here but all yall are smart enough to get my point. | |

Posted via VolNation Mobile | Yes. Anyone who chose Allmendinger last night received points for Hornish Jr. If a last minute replacement is made and contestants don't change picks, they receive points the replacement driver earns instead of no points at all. | |

| I've got a question for NASCAR regarding this. How soon did they know the test results? The sample was taken after the Kentucky race. Did they not know the results until late Saturday? I don't know, but it shouldn't take a week to figure out if a driver failed a drug test. If they knew the results well before they announced it, they should have said something sooner, because they sure didn't leave Penske Racing with alot of time to make other arrangments. Luckily Hornish made it in time, but if NASCAR knew far in advance, the suspension should have taken place much earlier. | |

| I wouldn't doubt that it took that long with all the red tape probably involved in the testing process. |

| I guess it did and I'm not accusing NASCAR of anything, it just seems like a full week is a long time to get test results. I don't know though. | |

| I've heard NASCAR tests for a long line of things. Combine that with the July 4th holiday and the lab results were probably slower than usual. | |
