NASCAR announced Wednesday a rules change that will reduce Toyota horsepower by about 15 for its Nationwide cars only. Toyota has won 14 of 21 races in that series this season.
“We’re extremely disappointed in NASCAR’s decision,” said Lee White, president and general manager of Toyota Racing Development. “In our opinion, there is no technical justification to penalize the Toyota engine utilized in the Nationwide Series.
“The success of the Toyota Camry this year in the Nationwide Series is the result of hard work and achievement by all of our race teams - Braun Racing, Joe Gibbs Racing, Germain Racing and Michael Waltrip Racing - working in conjunction with TRD (Toyota Racing Development) U.S.A.
