TORONTO STAR / WHEELS: Norris McDonald on the CME
Norris McDonald did a nice piece on the Canadian Motorsports Expo on the Toronto Star / Wheels.ca blog this morning. Thank you Norris!
"If having IZOD IndyCar Champion — and two-time winner of the Molson/Honda Indy Toronto — Dario Franchitti at next month’s Canadian Motorsports Expo wasn’t enough, the news today is that NASCAR Nationwide Series champ Brad Keselowski is coming too.
Fans will be able to meet, greet and get an autograph from Keselowski — who’s a pretty good NASCAR Sprint Cup Series star as well — on Sun, Jan. 23, at the International Centre out by Toronto Pearson.
Franchitti will be the headliner at the Expo the day before. The show opens on the Friday evening with a special Ontario stock car racing show built around a late model car belonging to the late — and legendary — “Daytona” Don Biederman and a panel featuring Junior Hanley.
From humble beginnings five years ago, the Canadian Motorsports Expo has become a must-attend event. Held in the dead of winter, the Expo features special guests like Franchitti and Keselowski, manufacturer and speedway displays, panel discussions (translation: arguments) and other attractions that always help to get the juices flowing...."

NASCAR: 3 race probation for Edwards
Prior to the season, NASCAR said it was putting the racing back in the hands of the racers. Competition Director Robin Pemberton was quoted saying, "It's in their hands now. Anything can happen" and "... we will say 'Boys, have at it and have a good time.'"
NASCAR boss Mike Helton said, "There's an age old saying that NASCAR, 'If you ain't rubbing, you ain't racing,'"
On Sunday in Atlanta, Carl Edwards intentionally rubbed / spun Brad Keselowski at 190+ mph, triggering a vicious crash could have easily turned tragic for Keselowski and/or some fans.
After the crash, Edwards let it be known that he felt obliged to take the action he did as a response to prior conflicts with Keselowski. He didn't use the word "payback" but he might as well have.
Today, in a move that is consistent with its move to let the racers police themselves, NASCAR announced that Edwards' penalty will be a three-race probation.
In the future, is the fact that payback at 190+ mph is apparently not frowned upon (given Edwards' slap on the wrist) going to make racers think twice before throwing the first stone? Would you be more careful about getting into Edwards (or anyone else) knowing they have free reign to get you back at the worst possible moment?
