One of the tools that we use for this purpose is the NASCAR Rule Book, which contains the rules and procedures governing NASCAR-sanctioned racing. Close, side-by-side competition among various makes of cars is the basis for NASCAR's tremendous fan support and phenomenal growth. NASCAR remains committed to this path. The NASCAR Rule Book is designed to continually promote better competition while factoring in the costs of participation. Where appropriate, it encourages technical innovation and creativity. Where necessary, it discourages potential imbalances that could impact the quality of the racing or its affordability. In all cases, rules are crafted with the goal of keeping the sport relevant and exciting. As part of NASCAR's commitment to maintaining a proper balance in competition, it may be necessary from time to time for NASCAR to make rule changes or adjustments. To maintain fairness and uphold the integrity of the sport, it may be necessary from time to time for NASCAR to issue penalties for rules infractions. NASCAR's Deterrence System is designed to send a clear message that NASCAR members and racing teams should largely police themselves. When a penalty is called for, the matter is less about the member(s) receiving the Penalty Notice. The greater consideration is the rest of the garage area, who are the ones potentially affected when an infraction occurs. This latest version of the NASCAR Rule Book is the culmination of more than 65 years of experience, learning, and knowledge. For 2015, it has been revised in several respects. We urge you to carefully study and familiarize yourself with the new Rule Book in order to understand these revisions, as well as those rules that have not changed. We at NASCAR wish all of you a successful and rewarding year of racing.

This Rule Book may be amended from time to time. Special rules may be published by NASCAR specifically for the Event and any applicable agreements to which NASCAR is a party may also apply. The NASCAR Rule Book is designed to provide for the orderly conduct of NASCAR-sanctioned Events. Ultimately, the solution for unauthorized or improper officiating lies not in individual challenges seeking to undo what has been done, but rather in pressure brought upon the Officials in charge by drivers, owners, fans, and even NASCAR to improve the caliber of Race supervision. It is the responsibility of each Member to address any complaint he/she might have regarding officiating to the NASCAR Competition Administrator. It is ultimately the obligation of each participant to ensure that his/her conduct and equipment comply with all applicable NASCAR Rules, as they may be amended from time to time. EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED WARRANTY OF SAFETY SHALL NOT RESULT FROM PUBLICATION OF, OR COMPLIANCE WITH, THESE RULES. They are intended as a guide for the conduct of stock car racing and are in no way a guarantee against injury or death to participants, spectators, or others.

  • NASCAR Sponsorship: Who Is the Real Winner? an Event Study Proposal
    NASCAR Sponsorship: Who is the Real Winner? An event study proposal A thesis submitted to the Miami University Honors Program in partial fulfillment of the requirements for University Honors with Distinction by Meredith Seurkamp May 2006 Oxford, Ohio ii ABSTRACT NASCAR Sponsorship: Who is the Real Winner? An event study proposal by Meredith Seurkamp This paper investigates the costs and benefits of NASCAR sponsorship. Sports sponsorship is increasing in popularity as marketers attempt to build more personal relationships with their consumers. These sponsorships range from athlete endorsements to the sponsorship of an event or physical venue. These types of sponsorships have a number of costs and benefits, as reviewed in this paper, and the individual firm must use its discretion whether sports sponsorship coincides with its marketing goals. NASCAR, a sport that has experienced a recent boom in popularity, is one of the most lucrative sponsorship venues in professional sports. NASCAR, which began as a single race in 1936, now claims seventy-five million fans and over one hundred FORTUNE 500 companies as sponsors. NASCAR offers a wide variety of sponsorship opportunities, such as driver sponsorship, event sponsorship, track signage, and a number of other options. This paper investigates the fan base at which these marketing messages are directed. Research of NASCAR fans indicates that these fans are typically more brand loyal than the average consumer. NASCAR fans exhibit particular loyalty to NASCAR sponsors that financially support the auto racing sport. The paper further explains who composes the NASCAR fan base and how NASCAR looks to expand into additional markets.

  • DAYTONA-SUPERBIRD AUTO CLUB WHEELS & DEALS Personal For
    July – August 2011 www.superbirdclub.com email: [email protected] The Heat is On – What I Did on My Summer Vacation Well it has been a busy summer for far at club headquarters. We have not stopped running since the end of June, but it sure has been a lot fun. I have burned a fair amount of 9 mpg gas in my Hemi Ram pulling the enclosed trailer back and forth. The Cleveland national meet in June was well organized and a very nice time. Doug and Carol Croxford did a great job and we were kept hopping with a full slate of activities every day. The weather was a little wet, but I don’t think we had a real rain out at any point in time, and it did not slow us down at all. The car count was less than expected for the effort involved, but I realize the Indianapolis meet announcement prevented some cars from coming. Cleveland was a nice place to visit with a beautiful lakefront. It’s definitely a place I would like to return to. The club picnic on July 24th drew 14 local Ford and Mopar aero cars to club headquarters on a very warm Sunday, and it was one of the better turnouts in recent years. There are a large number of these cars in Wisconsin for whatever reason, and it makes it easy to have a nice display on the front lawn. The next weekend after the picnic it was on to Indianapolis and the Brickyard 400, and the heat was on – like a blast furnace.

  • On the Right Track How Safety Innovation Saved the Sport of NASCAR
    On the Right Track How Safety Innovation Saved the Sport of NASCAR A research paper by Doug Robbins 1 Doug Robbins English Composition II 23 February 2017 Robbins – Lumerit College Composition II – Assignment 2 Since NASCAR was officially incorporated on February 21, 1948, (History.com) drivers have competed on sand, dirt and eventually, asphalt and concrete. The motivation for them was to either win the race or finish as high as you can in the running order. The prize money was the “driving” factor that kept these racers coming to the track. The ability to make enough money, in order to provide food and pay bills, outweighed the driver’s concern for their own safety. Cars crashed and drivers were severely injured or died. That was the chance they were willing to accept every time they climbed into a race car. Still the racing continued to grow and more tracks were built. While technology improved as the years went by, drivers were still getting hurt or killed as a result of on track accidents. The sport experienced multiple tragedies during the first 14 months of the 21st Century. NASCAR went through a period of reflection and reacted. The actions they took, resulted in making racing more safer for the drivers of today, than at any time in its 70 year history. On May 12th, 2000, at the New Hampshire Speedway, a 19 year old budding NASCAR star would lose his life during an (Xfinity) race practice. Adam Petty, the grandson of NASCAR racing legend Richard Petty, crashed his race car into a concrete wall, reportedly at over 130mph, while entering turn three at the speedway.
