    Just when it seemed it really might not matter who's naughty or nice in NASCAR, two events occurred to restore at least a portion of faith in the old adage that personal behavior truly does mean something. Kurt Busch was out of a job at Penske Racing and Darian Grubb, who had been inexplicably muscled out of his at Stewart-Haas Racing after helping Tony Stewart win the 2011 Sprint Cup championship, found a new home as Denny Hamlin's crew chief at Joe Gibbs Racing.

    MOORESVILLE, N.C. -- Add the reigning NASCAR Sprint Cup championship crew chief to the crew of the driver that nearly won the 2010 title and it could be the winning combination in 2012. That is what Joe Gibbs Racing, who named Darian Grubb as the crew chief for Denny Hamlin's No. 11 Toyota on Dec. 9, is counting on.
