Hendrick cars pass 2nd inspection

"CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) -- NASCAR found no problems with the cars of championship leaders Mark Martin and Jimmie Johnson on Tuesday following a second, more thorough inspection.

The Hendrick Motorsports-owned cars were taken to NASCAR's research and development center after Sunday's race at Kansas to make sure there were no issues with the Chevrolets. The team was warned last week that the cars had squeaked through inspection following their 1-2 showing at Dover." (Full Article - Associated Press)

  1. Just wanted to add that DUH the cars were legal - who would take the same chance the very next week? Oh well, at least this got the "favoritism" conspiracy theorists to pipe down a bit...if Hendrick is so favored, then why do they specifically get picked out of the field for 2 straight weeks of inspection?
