Dale Earnhardt Jr has been on a very long losing streak, but Junior’s fan can rejoice this morning as he won at Michigan International Speedway yesterday to end the streak. It was up to 76 races without a win and he did it in a way Junior rarely does it and that is with fuel mileage. Junior had to save fuel at every caution he could just to be able to make it all the way. He did it and no matter what anyone writes today a win is a win no matter how you may get it.
Kasey Kahne finished second as he probably is the hottest driver right now. Since the Shootout race at Lowes Motor Speedway Kahne has been hitting on all cylinders week after week. Look out for him in the Chase if he makes it as he is on a roll.

Nascar has suspended two officials all stemming from the 225 million dollar lawsuit that was filed eariler this week against Nascar. According to Nascar officials they did not know things were happening to this former employee. If grievances would have been brought to their attention they would have taken care of the problem right away.
I think you will see many more people suspended or brought down by this lawsuit. This is a black eye so far for Nascar and if more suspensions do follow this could be just the tip of the iceberg. I guess we will just have to see what the fallout will be in the end. Nascar is trying to clean this mess up as fast as possible to limit the damage that it already has caused.

Mauricia Grant an ex-nascar offical has alleged she was appalled at the way she was treated by others in the time she worked for Nascar. She contends the discrimination and bullying started from her hire until she was fired last October. In her suit she is seeking 225 million dollars from Nascar.
After looking over some of her claims if they are true it really would not surprise me one bit. She entered a world much different than what she probably thought it would be like. Now it does not make it right the way people treated her according to the lawsuit, but we will have to wait and see how it all plays out before I can really make a call on this one. I will follow on this one and keep you posted.
