From the Associated Press: Start & Park

" At Vegas, it was Aric Almirola in a car owned by Phoenix Racing that ducked off the track after 23 laps for what was listed as a vibration. The Team collected $79,431 for the effort "

NASCAR is trying to make it tougher on start-and-parks with a new policy of inspecting the first car out of the race that wasn't involved in an accident. It could force Teams to run longer, or, at the minimum, ensure the cars will be forced to prove they are legal and made the race fair and square "


So called complete inspections include a motor tear down to the bare block, as NASCAR hands the Team back the parts. Other Teams that do not qualify have stated their intention is to run the entire race.
