NASCAR Fontana weekend penalty report

NASCAR has issued three fines to crew chiefs for having one or more unsecured lug nut on their cars during last weekend’s races at Auto Club Speedway.

There were two fines in the Cup Series. Randall Burnett, crew chief on Tyler Reddick‘s No. 8 Chevy, and Mike Shiplett, crew chief on Cole Custer‘s No. 41 Ford, were each fined $10,000.

In the Xfinity Series, Dave Rogers, crew chief on Riley Herbst‘s No. 18 Toyota, was fined $5,000.

Bet they cannot wait until NASCAR switches to a single lug nut in 2021 and abandons its 75-year old 5 lug nut technology.
