NASCAR has approved a new nose for the 2009 Dodge Chargers, which should help the cars perform better on the so-called intermediate tracks of 1.5 to 2 miles in length. Those tracks, which make up nearly half of the Cup schedule, were the clear weak points for Dodge teams last year.”Its very subtle changes to the nose,” said Penske Racings Roy McCauley, crew chief of the #12 Dodge Charger driven by David Stremme.”In fact, if you just took a quick glance at it, you might even miss it “ some changes in the line structure around the headlight doors and things like that.”(SPEEDtv.com)(1-20-2009)
