Front Row Motorsports supports NASCAR in its efforts to enforce competition rules and to maintain integrity throughout the sport.  Therefore, Front Row accepts that NASCAR must penalize the team for a rules infraction regarding valve stem caps on the No. 38 car at Pocono Raceway on June 6. 

“We take the rules of this sport very seriously, and we support NASCAR in its enforcement of those rules,” said Bob Jenkins, team owner.  “It was not our intent to put unapproved valve stem caps on our car at Pocono, a track where such a maneuver would clearly not provide any advantage.  We are conducting our own internal investigation to determine how those parts got into our inventory and onto our car last weekend.

“While we recognize we have to pay for our mistake, this was an unintentional, isolated incident,”
Jenkins continued. “We plan to immediately submit an appeal through NASCAR’s formal appeal process as outlined by the NASCAR rule book.”

The team’s three entries will compete this weekend at Michigan International Speedway.
