Busch's truck too low


SPARTA, Ky. – The race-winning truck of Kyle Busch measured too low in the front during post-race inspection following Thursday night’s UNOH 225 atKentucky Speedway.

Officials said the issue would be evaluated further at the NASCAR Research and Development Center during the upcoming week.

Busch dominated the Camping World Truck Series event, leading 91 of 150 laps. It was his fifth win of the season in five starts.

Unlike the Sprint Cup Series, ride-height rules remain in place for entries in the Nationwide and Truck Series.

Earlier this season, the No. 9 entry of driver Chase Elliott measured too low during post-race inspection at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. NASCAR determined that the violation was a P2 penalty and placed Elliott’s crew chief, Greg Ives, on probation for the remainder of the year.

Eric Phillips is crew chief for Busch and the No. 51 team.
