NASCAR drivers pass drug tests; concerns turn to crews - NASCAR - drug test


NASCAR drivers have passed the first round of mandatory drug testing in series history, but one driver says there's reason to be suspicious of those changing tires and filling their tanks at Sunday's season-opening Daytona 500.



"Looking at some of the over-the-wall guys, I have some concerns about these situations and the possibility of performance-enhancement," Sprint Cup rookie Brad Keselowski said.

All drivers from NASCAR's three national series (Sprint, Nationwide and Camping World Truck) passed the tests conducted by the lab tapped by the series, NASCAR spokesman Ramsey Poston said. Each race team, however, was responsible for testing its crewmembers — and some apparently hit snags.
