DEI driver Martin Truex will be using his back up car as soon as its ready because NASCAR took his primary car and won’t give it back.
He missed the first practice session today in Daytona because his crew were getting the back up car ready.
“It has something to do with the roofline, the width of the car,” John Story, vice president of motorsports for DEI, said. “Certainly it was nothing intentional. It fit our templates at the shop; it just didn’t fit NASCAR’s templates here, apparently … it’s brand new,” he continued. “The templates the teams have in the shop and the templates that are here [at the track], they have a slight, slight difference.”
They’re not getting that car back.
