Reutimann still learning impact of recent win

Posted by on June 2nd, 2009

After recent success and a Memorial Day win, David Reutimann finds himself in a new place: the spotlight. Rea White takes a look.

NASCAR on Tuesday moved Jeremy Mayfield’s challenge of his indefinite suspension to federal court, a move that could keep the driver out of his car another week.

The notification came a day before a North Carolina Superior Court was scheduled to hear arguments pertaining to Mayfield’s suspension for failing a random drug test. NASCAR’s action automatically stayed that proceeding.

Mayfield had hoped a judge would reinstate him in time to compete this weekend at Pocono Raceway in Pennsylvania.

Biffle-Edwards situation needs attention

Greg Biffle had another run-in with Carl Edwards on Sunday. Jack Roush needs to have a little chat with them, Larry McReynolds says.

NASCAR driver Carl Long says he has lost his appeal of a 12-race suspension and penalty.

The National Stock Car Racing Commission denied Long’s appeal at a hearing Tuesday, the driver told The Associated Press. The commission isolated Long’s suspension to the Sprint Cup Series, meaning he can find work in one of the sport’s lower levels. However, Long’s full-time job is working with the Front Row Motorsports No. 34 Chevrolet in the Cup series.
