Kahne rests
Dustin Long, who's back in Charlotte after driving all night from Alabama reports in:
Kasey Kahne not cleared to test at Charlotte today. Says he will be cleared tomorrow.
Evidently that hit he took yesterday was harder than he and his team initially let on. It's obviously not Nadeau/Park serious, but it's worth watching.
And not to put the proverbial cart before the horse, but Kahne is fourth in points, 181 behind of Jimmie Johnson. With the chase-eligible field down to 12 already, Kahne can't afford to miss Richmond.
4:30 p.m.: Dustin says that Kahne didn't visit a doctor today, which is why he wasn't cleared to race. Still, you'd think he'd get that thing cleared up today instead of letting it hang on for a day or so. If he's right in the head, his tests today would come back fine, right?

Why do I recall a very old sports story.
