2019 Robby Gordon Headquarters
Major penalty coming for the #38? bleeder valves found on the tires
Read this over at jayski's. It sounds like the #38 could have a 200 point $200,000 penalty coming and could put Robby back in the Top 35!!!
Illegal bleeder valves on the #38 at Pocono? Sources tell Sirius that NASCAR discovered clandestine [secrecy or concealed] air pressure bleeder valves on the tires of Travis Kvapil's #38 Front Row Motorsports Ford Sunday at Pocono Raceway. Following the rain delay, NASCAR officials reportedly observed two soft tires on the rear of Kvapil's car and held him from rolling back onto the track for the start of the race. Closer examination of those tire and wheel assemblies allegedly revealed illegal bleeder valves, which purge excess air pressure from the tires as it accumulates under race conditions. If confirmed, the team would likely face a major NASCAR penalty, since tires are considered to be one of the sanctions "untouchable" items, along with engines and fuel.(Sirius Speedway)(6-8-2010)

on the other hand, being that this IS a site for Robby Gordon , and not a 'generic' racing website, there is NO SHAME AT ALL if a fan of RG has faith in his driver not dropping out of the top 35 again.Its racing, anything is possible. I dont think Dale Sr fans thought 2001 would have been his last race,however, this isnt a physics exam and if a person is proved 'wrong', then so be it.

It's always unintentional. Like the 20 lb. roll of duct tape and the 10 lb. goggle box - unintentional.
