BROOKLYN, Mich. (AP) – Martin Truex Jr. has plenty of questions about the possibility of midseason rules changes aimed at creating better racing.
“What’s it going to be like?” the NASCAR Sprint Cup driver said. “Is it going to do what they think and what some of the drivers think it’s going to do?”
And then there’s perhaps the most important concern.
“How much time do you want to spend on worrying about one race? Are we going to have this rules package for the Chase?” he said.
Sprint Cup drivers spent time Friday addressing potential rule changes that could occur as early as next month’s race at Kentucky. NASCAR met with key industry leaders at its North Carolina research and development center this week to discuss that possibility, according to a person who attended the meeting and spoke on condition of anonymity because NASCAR requested the details not be made public.
