    With one suspicious snap of the steering wheel, Clint Bowyer changed the outcome of a race and maybe the championship, too.

    Accidental or intentional, his spin in the closing laps at Richmond International Raceway set in motion a chain of events that has shrouded the start of the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship and raised many questions about the potential for a race team to manipulate pivotal moments of a race.

    Now NASCAR is reviewing evidence to determine if Michael Waltrip Racing deliberately altered Saturday night's race, potentially costing both Ryan Newman and Jeff Gordon spots in the Chase, to benefit MWR driver Martin Truex Jr.

    How about we investigate all the times that Johnson has been practically out of the race and somehow mysteriously finishes in the top 10 in the blink of an eye.
