NASCAR issued a request to the Final Appeals officer Tuesday for probably the first time in its 75-year history, asking that in fairness he adjusts penalty for unapproved hood louvers to the same as the one the National Motorsports Appeals Panel gave Hendrick Motorsports less than a month ago. After taking hood louvers from Hendrick Motorsports and Kaulig Racing at Phoenix Raceway last month, NASCAR assessed penalties against all four Hendrick teams and Kaulig’s No. 31 organization for violating the rule stating that a single-source vendor part could not be altered. Each team and driver were assessed a 100-point loss and had 10 playoff points taken from them. Each crew chief was suspended for four races and fined $100,000.
to limit the three-person appeals panel’s authority and to allow it to make public the basis for its ruling.
