Toyota are being naughty...
from Sports Illustrated:
The NASCAR inspectors have been busy during this historical week of cheating at Daytona. Five crew chiefs have been suspended, one (David Hayder of Michael Waltrip Racing) was hit with a record-setting fine of $100,000, and one driver (Waltrip) narrowly escaped being booted off the Daytona premises after a mysterious Vaseline-like substance was found in his fuel.

This week another element has contributed to the over-the-top attempts at swindling the inspectors: A sense of desperation. The Toyota Camrys of Michael Waltrip Racing had been down on speed ever since January testing at Daytona. One or more members of that team obviously felt that something extraordinary had to be done to generate more horsepower so that they could be competitive with the Chevys, Fords and Dodges in the field. To that end, they dumped that mysterious foreign substance into the fuel cell, believing that the potential reward was worth the risk.
