The National Stock Car Racing Commission Appeals Panel has denied a Richard Childress Racing appeal of the penalties handed down to team personnel in the aftermath of rules violations detected following last month’s race at Michigan International Speedway. Crew chief Slugger Labbe was fined $100,000 and received a multi-week suspension and NASCAR probation through Dec. 31.
