NASCAR takes part from 48 car

Quote:

NASCAR takes part from 48 car: NASCAR officials confiscated a drive-shaft cover from Jimmie Johnson's #48 Lowe's Chevy before the race. According to a NASCAR source, officials just asked the team to replace a part and it wasn't a serious matter.(NASCAR This Week)(10-25-2010)

Interesting ... they just asked the team to replace a part ...

I wonder what would they do if something like that happened with one of Ford's teams ...

Saw Ray Everham on tv a little while ago and he says NASCAR has limits on how thin the thickness of the metal for the shaft can be but not how thick so by it weighing more - it would lower the car. He says NASCAR has probably already addressed this issue for future races
