NASCAR plans to talk to Trackhouse Racing about two of its cars running through the grass after last weekend’s race at World Wide Technology Raceway at Gateway, saying the actions “caught our radar.”
Brad Moran, managing director of the NASCAR Cup Series, made the comments Tuesday morning on SiriusXM NASCAR Radio.
“We’ll have be having some discussions with Trackhouse in management as well as their crew chiefs, and we’ll be giving all the teams some information regarding that this week,” Moran said when asked about what the Trackhouse cars did after the race.
“It certainly caught our radar. We have rules that could put the teams in a real bad spot when we see that. So, we’ll make it pretty clear to them, moving forward, starting at Bristol what that means.”
The Trackhouse cars of playoff drivers Ross Chastain and Shane van Gisbergen both drove into the grass entering the access road in Turn 3 after taking the checkered flag.
