Monday was a rough day to be Rowan Pennink.

A weekend’s worth of battling for positions at two tracks was swept away by multiple penalties announced on Monday.
Pennink, of Huntingdon Valley, Pa., finished fourth in the 42-lap NASCAR Whelen All-American Series SK Modified feature Friday at Stafford Motor Speedway.
But in postrace inspection, Pennink’s car was found to have illegal brake components and he was dropped to the 20th (last) place position in the running order.
Saturday night Pennink raced to an eighth place finish in the Valenti Modified Racing Series event at Canaan Fair Speedway.
Monday he saw that finish turn from an eighth to a 13th when his team was assessed a one-lap postrace penalty for an unapproved tire change during the event.
