Testing next week at Daytona UPDATE: Next week, NASCAR officials hope to run a second round of testing of proposed new rules at Daytona.(Winston Salem Journal)(8-30-2002) UPDATE: NASCAR officials are considering another test to work on the aerodynamic rules for restrictor-plate races at Talladega and Daytona, where cars tend to travel in packs, increasing the chance of multicar accidents. “I talked to (Winston Cup series director) John Darby a little bit after they went to Daytona a few weeks ago. The last thing they were working on and started to see a little progress on, I guess they didn’t get to run because it rained, so they’re getting ready to go back pretty soon,” said Frank Stoddard, crew chief for Jeff Burton’s #99 Fords. “They’re going to go to either Talladega or Daytona again and try to simulate what they wanted to do the first time and didn’t get to finish.”(ThatsRacin.com)(8-31-2002)
