Default NASCAR drug testing?

The recent arrest of Craftsman Truck Series driver Aaron Fike on charges of heroin possession has brought new calls for NASCAR to toughen its drug-testing policies. Driver Kevin Harvick, who Sunday at Indianapolis Motor Speedway will try to win the Allstate 400 at the Brickyard for a second time, has been outspoken in favoring mandatory testing. "I believe every driver in every national series should be drug tested a couple times a year randomly, regardless of who you are," Harvick said recently. "I think we owe it to the sponsors and the fans to 100 percent know that this is a clean environment. Shame on NASCAR for not policing our garage better than what they police it now." Harvick's Richard Childress Racing teammate, Jeff Burton, said he doesn't believe a serious problem exists but "wishes NASCAR tested more" to remove any doubt.
