We had breaking news late Tuesday night because NASCAR decided to hand out big penalties for Martinsville manipulation. Will it affect the championship? Catch up on everything with Eric Estepp on Out Of The Groove.

It’s become commonplace for most penalties in NASCAR, but every team has decided to appeal. What chances do you think the teams have to get this one overturned?
One of the biggest details to this penalty is that each driver’s spotter and crew chiefs will be suspended for one race. How much of an impact do you think those crew members have regarding race manipulation?
It seems like the group that has the most influence when it comes to situations like this are the manufacturers, but NASCAR said that there is no mechanism in the rulebook for them to penalize them. Do you think this is something NASCARneeds to change in the off-season?
