20A-Alex Shanks...The 20a was found out to be Shane Cockrum, not Alex Shanks. Because of this, Shane has been DQ'd for the 2016 Chili Bowl Nationals.

Shane raced his race the other night.

Oh come on, Back when some sanctions had terms racing with other groups. Surnames were all the rage. Luck Warmwater, Smoke Johnson, Hoolio Jones etc were quite popular drivers

They got caught. That is all. I find it kinda funny, But I guess if your the guy getting bumped, It isn't so much. Shane simply tweeted "WHERES THE ACTUAL RULE BOOK?"

Bill Holland got a long suspension from AAA for driving a pace car at a non AAA race. This was after he won the 500.

Was he wearing a "Wig and Sunglasses?" Ala Johnny Manziel... Wow!! Y would u even put yourself in this type of situation? Immoral... Take a page from the tennis match where one player told the other player the ball was inbounds(told him to challenge it) All falls around SPORTSMANSHIP here fellas...Cockrums actions classless...Like no one was going to recognize U??!!
