Water found in the tanks of some cars after Atlanta race
NASCAR is having the water found in the gas tanks of some cars tested to see if they can find out how it got there. They have supposedly tested the underground tanks and there was no water there, nor in the pumps, but the water got into these cars somehow.
At first it was Denny Hamlin's car and Dave Blaney's that the water was found, then Biffle, Kurt Busch, Ryan Newman, Kevin Harvick, Clint Bowyer and Jeff Burton's car were added to the list. The water, which was way more prevalent in Hamlin's car, caused a vapor-lock which made everyone think Hamlin ran out of fuel.
Right now they are testing everything that has to do with the delivery of the fuel, but don't have any answers as of yet. The water that was found was not clear, it was brown, causing more confusion, but nothing is known as of yet until everything is checked and after this water is tested.
It is thought to be a problem at Atlanta Motor Speedway only, so there are no concerns from NASCAR going forward to Texas this weekend.
Your thoughts?

Ok,well..I've been one that has given thought to conspiracy theories before,but honestly,given the seemingly random name of drivers on the list with water in their tank,in my opinion it has something to do with the equipment used to fill these cars up with fuel..KURT2 would know more on this subject,so I'll sit back for a while before I give any more opinions as to why michael waltrip rulz.!! I know kurt2 loved that comment.. :)
