I had to leave right at the end of the race....what's his beef?

I left right after it ended too but they showed Kyle, still in the car, taking off his gear in a hurry and they thought he was looking for someone.

I think he was just pissed with the penalty and I'm sure no one was moving over to let him by.

 

He finished 16th.

 

 

12th, 23rd, 36th..........I'm just cursed....lol

I haven't had a single top ten finisher.

I can't see how I will ever get out of this hole. I was using the "good" drivers and they had bad finishes.

I think my only hope is to take Danica, Cassil and Cope and in some random act of God they finish 1, 2, 3.

Joey Logano thought his win in last Sunday’s Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series race at Richmond International Raceway put him in the playoffs, setting him up for a run at his first championship.

Now that dream is on hold after NASCAR announced Thursday morning that Logano’s win is “encumbered” and therefore will not count toward qualifying him for a playoff spot after the first 26 races that constitute the regular season.

And the encumbered win is only part of the price Logano and his No. 22 Team Penske team will pay for a rear-suspension violation discovered during post-race teardown of the race-winning car after it was taken to the NASCAR R&D Center in Concord, North Carolina.

Logano’s crew chief, Todd Gordon, also was fined $50,000 and suspended for two races. Logano also incurred a 25-point driver points penalty, and the team was docked 25 owner points.

The encumbered win is the first for a victorious Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series team since NASCAR adopted rules that made that a possibility for such violations in 2016. It means Logano cannot use the Richmond win as consideration for an automatic playoff spot.

And should Logano still make the postseason, the five playoff points that normally would come with a victory would not apply for his Richmond triumph — even though the official race record will still list Logano as the race winner.

NASCAR cited that the violation came under Section 20 of the NASCAR Rule Book. According to the penalty grid NASCAR issued, the No. 22 team did not adhere to the following: the truck trailing arm spacer/pinion angle shim mating surfaces must be planar and must be in complete contact with corresponding mating surfaces at all points and at all times.

Team Penske later released a statement saying they did not intend to appeal NASCAR’s decision.

“We understand and accept the penalty that was communicated to us today by NASCAR following last weekend’s victory by the No. 22 car at Richmond,” the statement said. “We are disappointed by the notice, however, we do not plan to appeal the penalty. The No. 22 team remains focused on competing for wins as we work towards the NASCAR Playoffs and a Championship. Race Engineer Miles Stanley will serve as Joey Logano’s crew chief this weekend at Talladega Superspeedway, while Greg Erwin will help call race strategy on Sunday.”

NASCAR’s Monster Energy regular season ends Sept. 9 with another race at Richmond. The 10-race playoffs that will determine the Cup champion begin at Chicagoland Speedway on Sept. 17.

Hmmm this should affect the points in the pool.

That's what I thought too. It doesn't look like they have made the adjustment yet :dunno:
