Why they practice
Dustin Long is in Richmond and reports in during Cup practice:
Less than 10 minutes into the first practice, Tony Stewart backs it into the wall. Suffers rear-end damage. I believe they'll have to go to a backup car. This was a brand new chassis and this was to have been its first race.
And a few minutes after Dustin sent that, he sends this:
Backup car is out. Primary car too much left rear damage.
I wonder if the 9 team is cheering?
