nascar has a long standing policy they will never take a win away no matter what.their reasoning is they dont want the 100000+ fans that are at the race to go home thinking one person won only to find out monday or tuesday that who they thought won didnt. but with the penalties they hand out now its like the violator wasnt at the race.

Carl Edwards Heavily Penalized For Cheating, But Doesn't Have To Forfeit Vegas Win.
hey amaized mark i dont know how long you have been following nascar but i am a season ticket holder at daytona and bristol and get to 1 race at dover and martinsville every year.i have followed nascar since the mid 1970's and i guess you dont remember what racing used to be like then.first off everybody cheated plain and simple.it was either cheat or lose.i remember on many times back then when the winner would have 2 or 3 laps on the second place car.back then there would only be 2 or 3 cars that had a chance to win.i dont want that again. it is more competitive now and that started back around 85 or 86 when they switched from the big cars to what they just retired last year.i like them all about even and its up to the driver to win.now you have 15-20 drivers that could win on any given day. the days of run what you brung are long over thankfully.
