Race 22 - Heluva Good! Sour Cream Dips at The Glen Penalties

David Ragan's day went from bad, to okay, to really bad in the Heluva Good! Sour Cream Dips at The Glen. Early on, Ragan ran out of fuel and had to be pushed into the pits by his teammate, Carl Edwards. Late in the race, Ragan looked to have salvaged the day with a potential top 20 finish before contact between he and Boris Said caused a huge wreck as cars entered the esses on the final lap. The wreck relegated Ragan to a 28th place finish.

Red - Driver Induced Penalty

White - Verbal Abuse Toward Official/Safety Violation

Red, green and white designated penalties are considered to be "serious" penalties as they have a more significant affect on the outcome of a driver and team's finish than pink and orange designated penalties.
