CHARLOTTE, N.C. - July 8, 2009 NASCAR made its request Wednesday to the 4th U.S. Circuit Court
of Appeals. In the filing, NASCAR argues allowing Mayfield on the
track presents potentially fatal consequences to other drivers,
teams and fans.
The filing claims U.S. District Court Judge Graham Mullen relied
on incorrect information when he lifted the suspension last week.
NASCAR has said Mayfield tested positive for methamphetamine,
but the driver has denied using the illegal drug. His lawyers
contend NASCAR's drug policy is flawed because it does not meet
federal guidelines.
