Because this is the first that I have heard of it. I can't find anything on it anywhere.

Really? It's an AP story so you should be able to find it
everywhere. In any case, here's the link to
nascar.com. Check the 5th last paragraph

Well, we will see what happens. I hate it when teams cheat, especially when I am a fan of the team.

Broken spring could be costly for Kenseth's Busch team
SCENEDAILY - 2:11PM ET SUNDAY NOVEMBER 11, 2007 - BY BOB POCKRASS - ASSOCIATE EDITOR
JASON SMITH / GETTY IMAGES
AVONDALE, Ariz. - A broken left front spring caused the No. 17 Roush Racing Ford driven by Matt Kenseth to be too high in the right rear during postrace inspection following the Arizona.Travel 200 Busch Series race Saturday at Phoenix International Raceway.
Kenseth finished second in the race. His team faces possible points and monetary penalties from being outside the NASCAR specifications. NASCAR likely will announce any penalties Tuesday.
"It had a broken spring, a broken coil," team owner Jack Roush said Sunday morning. "It's not clear at all what, if any, punitive action NASCAR will take. You're going to break parts sometime.
"That is a part that we ran in that car at this race track in the winter. We haven't broken a Draco spring all year. Parts break. We broke a part."

So Jack expects us to believe that Matt (who is one of the more "sensitive" drivers in NASCAR; meaning he feels a cars reaction more than other drivers) drove that car to a 2nd place finish....with a broken left front spring....and didn't SAY anything???
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...not a freakin' chance!!! Unless that spring broke the second they put the car on the panels, and the chances of that happening are about 1 in a billion.

Well dumbnuts, sort of depends on where the spring broke. If it broke in the middle, yea you would feel it, if it broke on the top or bottom coil you probably wouldn't

For once we agree completely.You couldnt even drive a car into those corners at those speeds period,with a Broken spring or shock.
