DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. -- NASCAR officials announced today that Chad Knaus, crew chief for the No. 48 Chevrolet that competes in the NASCAR Winston Cup Series, has been fined $2,500 for rule violations on May 23 before qualifying for the Coca-Cola 600 at Lowe's Motor Speedway (held May 25).

 

The No. 48, driven by Jimmie Johnson, was in violation of Section 12-4-A in the NASCAR Winston Cup rule book (actions detrimental to stock car racing) and Section 12-4-Q (unapproved use of refrigerant near the fuel system).

 

 

 

 

 

It seems like he gets fined quite a bit by NA$CAR.

This didn't effect his "win" though...did it?

[Elwood]

I seriously doubt it would. As far as I know it did not. Alot of people get fined after a win and do not lose the win, only $$ and some times points.
