A second crew member has been suspended indefinitely for violation of NASCAR's substance abuse policy.

It's the second suspension in the two months since NASCAR instituted a new drug testing policy for the 2009 season. As opposed to being concerned about having multiple violators, NASCAR officials say the findings confirm the integrity of the sport and its zero tolerance policy.

"We made a good program even better," NASCAR spokesmen Ramsey Poston said Wednesday. "What it shows is everyone is going to be tested. And it removes all doubt that the competitors at the track are clean."
