I find out this morning that Tomac won the mud fest supercross last night. Then I watch Vettel win the f1 race with worn out tires.

ckf Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Restrictor plates at All-Star Race? Clint Bowyer's spotter said on a podcast this week that NASCAR will use restrictor plates for next month's All-Star Race at Charlotte Motor Speedway. It would be the first time restrictor plates have been used at that track in Cup. "This is going to happen,'' said Brett Griffin on the podcast "Door Bumper Clear on Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s Dirty Mo Radio. "They're going to put restrictor plates on these cars for the All-Star Race. They're going to knock like 250 horsepower off. We're going to run, I think we're basically running the Xfinity package from Indy ... last year. I was told top speed is going to be around 170 miles an hour.'' NASCAR would not confirm the change Tuesday. NBC Sports has learned through industry sources that are not authorized to speak publicly about it that the move is expected to be made. Teams are expected to be notified soon and an official announcement made this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
