Does anyone know if Tony was fined or punished in anyway for running all over that car in the pits this past Sunday?
I think it was Paul Menard??
I can't find anything about it on Nascar.com

No, even though it happened under caution nascar considers it an on track incident. If they were going to penalize him, they would have done it at that time. Most likely by giving him a black flag and making him start at the end of the longest line. In most cases like this one, nascar will get on the radio with the driver or crew chief and give them a warning before taking any action. After the bumping coming out of the pits I didn't see any more going on between the two of them. I guess Tony got the message pretty quick.

That's one of the things that makes Tony so cool. No only can he race(and win) pretty much anything on wheels. He'll give the shirt(let's not forget the hair) off his back, to a charity. Tony's also known to do stuff for other driver's charities as well as his own. BTW the back waxing thing was payback for Tony doctoring a pic of Kevin Harvick to look like Ronald MacDonald. As for Tony helping other racers, right on, and it has been cool watching Morgan Sheppard do more than run 20 laps and retire(hell he's been getting decent finishes as well), and thanks to Smoke and the Harvicks(KHI, hooked Morgan up with a car for Dega.), we have a chance to see that. Just one of the reasons I have a 20 sticker next to my 88 sticker.

No they didn't do anything to him but they docked Carl 25 points. Tony should have got a penalty he could have hurt someone. Carl got a penalty in Busch Series for going out and running over Dale Jr. so I think he should get a penalty. If he is on probation then he really should get a penalty!! He is just shoved up the NASCAR officials @$$e$ so he won't get in trouble!!

That is because he did not get penalized in any way. What Tony did was silly and he could have ruined his own car but that is just the way Tony is. Not saying it was okay just that almost all drivers do stupid things from time to time. Nascar is already getting too picky about everything that goes on.

They haven't done anything yet.Since he's still on probation they probably aren't going to do anything anyway, nascar wants him in the chase

Haven't seen anything on Tony.So maybe NASCAR thought it was a "racing thing".

When Tony hit him they were not in the pitts, they were on the track.

yeah he should have been punished he's a hot head and that's why he can't keep a girlfriend, does needs to go to these anger management classes, because if that's the way he is in real like he's in alot of trouble come on he even blamed his team mate for his ignorant actions, He is one of the biggest hot heads in Nascar maybe Tony and Kyle petty can car pool together!!!!!!!!!!!
