NASCAR's No Tolerance for Temper: Gase's $5,000 Fling Comes After Tense Crash

Joey Gase's on-track meltdown turned wallet-lightening as NASCAR hit him with a $5,000 fine for hurling his car's bumper at fellow driver Dawson Cram. In what's now a viral upset, Gase couldn't keep cool after Cram's No. 4 Chevrolet sent him spinning into the wall during the ToyotaCare 250 Xfinity Series race.

After making an impromptu exit from his wrecked No. 35 Chevrolet, Gase vented his emotions by ripping off the rear bumper and launching it towards Cram's car. The fiberglass missile found its target, landing on Cram's windshield as he navigated the Richmond Raceway.

"I think just him not having his head screwed on right," Gase retorted when explaining the crash. He couldn't fathom Cram's rookie move, especially under the colors of Johnny Davis' team known for its damage-aversion tactics.

While Cram cruised to a 25th place finish, without a peep about the incident, Gase is still revving up for his first-ever Xfinity and Cup Series win.
