Colorado National Speedway and the NASCAR Weekly Racing Series ownership and management firmly stand behind the findings of the certified laboratory used to perform this analysis and the processes and procedures used to collect and deliver the tested samples to this facility. This type of rules violation will not be tolerated at CNS and future testing will continue to be performed to ensure to the best of our ability that all competitors are given an opportunity to compete on a level playing field within the confines of the 2009 CNS rulebook.
