Actually, I think the fine money goes to various charitys like Victory Junction.
BTW, Robby Gordon's fine was appealed and he got his points back but his fine was bumped up to $150,000. He got the wrong nose for his Charger because of a dash in the part number. The only thing innovative in NASCAR is safety(HANS device, safer barrier,COT), thats why they still run carburated small blocks and 4 speed trannys. The car is meant to be "technologicly challenged"
