NASCAR fines seven crew chiefs for lug nut violations at Las Vegas

NASCAR announced Tuesday it has fined seven crew chiefs for silly lug nut violations from the Cup and Xfinity races this past weekend at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. This happens every race.  When is NASCAR going to go to a single central lug nut like open wheel racing.

In the Cup Series, NASCAR issued fines to crew chiefs Matt McCall (Kurt Busch), Greg Erwin (Matt DiBenedetto) and Seth Barbour (John Hunter Nemechek) for having one lug nut not safe and secure on their cars. Each crew chief was fined $10,000.

In the Xfinity Series, NASCAR fined crew chiefs Bruce Schlicker (Ross Chastain), Dave Rogers (Riley Herbst), Ben Beshore (Harrison Burton) and Brian Wilson (Austin Cindric) for having one lug nut not safe and secure on their cars. Each crew chief was fined $5,000.
