"The simple part of it means NASCAR don't care who you are or what your circumstances are," Long told ESPN.com. Well, duhhhh

NASCAR is not a charity, it is a business.

Would Mr. Long prefer that penalties get assessed by financial circumstances rather than severity of offense?

Somebody posted somewhere (not here - our folks aren't that ditzy) that the measurement could have been off because of a worn caliper. It was all I could do to not thoroughly embarrass that poor soul - I figured he'd embarrassed himself enough.
