Should have been 500.
Fine should have been 500 grand.
That would get the cheaters' attention.
Gee, ya think the Toilettas will get booed at Bristol?
Not really, they got basically the same penalty as Truex who brought an illegal car to the the track with the intent of racing it.

I agree that by Nascar's rules hiding your true HP is cheating and they should be punished but which is worse? Hiding the HP level of a legal car or running a car that you know is illegal. I have yet to hear Nascar say the cars dynoed to high without the magnets.

As stated before I am not a Toyota fan and can't stand them being in Nascar but the penalties should fit the crime.

Hey G, the only reason Dale Sr got so much admiration after winning the 500 is because it took him so long to do it. I'd wager to say the same admiration would be shown to any driver that goes that long before winning it.
