Knaus has been penalized by NASCAR nine times prior to this offense. They are:

• March 2001: suspended for two races and fined $5,000 for using an unapproved shoulder harness in a car driven by Stacy Compton.

• October 2001: fined $750 for using unapproved window clips on Compton's car.

• July 2002: fined $25,000 for having improperly installed mounting bolts. The team was docked 25 championship points and 25 owner points.

• July 2002: fined $5,000 for cursing during a live television interview.

• May 2003: fined $1,000 for using an unapproved air-directional device during the All-Star race.

• May 2003: fined $2,500 for using an unapproved refrigerant.

• March 2005: suspended two races and fined $35,000 because Johnson's race-winning car failed to meet the minimum height requirement during postrace inspection at Las Vegas. The suspension later was overturned, but Knaus was placed on 90 days' probation and the fine stood.

• February 2006: ejected from the Daytona 500 and suspended for four races for an illegal device that raised the rear window to create an aerodynamic advantage. Also fined $25,000.

• June 2007: fined $100,000, suspended for six races and placed on probation for altering the front fender at Infineon Raceway.

Good question. He's had numerous violations as Edisto posted, and when I heard it was just a 6 race suspension I thought "WTF? That's it."

damn, I didn't realize the pole-smoker had been busted 9 times before this!!

I knew it was a few but not that many.
