The mighty Google, when asked about "Stremme Gordon", returns the following link:
http://www.cbssports.com/autoracing/story/12027384 which essentiall boils down to:

NASCAR held Robby Gordon and David Stremme five laps after they got together several times at Pocono.While Stremme might have blatantly wrecked Gordon, Gordon was by no means an innocent victim. Not only did he threaten to wreck Stremme over his in-car radio, but he followed up by laying the bumper to him pretty good. Plus, apparently there was some other interaction between the two we didn't see. It was clear these two had an agenda other than racing. They played an equal part in the ruckus and thus I believe an equal penalty was fair (though perhaps a bit light).

Interestingly for all you Mikey-haters - on this same link, "community guest" MikeyFan1599 sticks up for RG and says NASCAR was too light on Stremme.

Well FRM has now moved David Gilliland to the 37 for Martinsville and Conway to the 38.David will be carrying sponsorship from Gander Mountain.Seems David knew there was the possibility of this happening before signing with the team.
