Atlanta oil fine

05-02-2007, 08:02 AM

In 1996 at Houston we fought an oil leak the whole time. We would pull to the line thinking we had the problem corrected and they would send us back to the pits. We finally got it fixed after replacing the pan and made one time trial then went to the semi final. I guess we wouldn't even get the chance to race today since we could not afford all those fines. Do they disqualify you after so many instances or do you pay a fine for each time you pull to the line with a leak?
