Recency was involved in an accident during the session that was full of crashes and had to bring out a backup truck. However, that truck appeared to travel significantly faster than the rest of the field, slowing down only when catching up to multi-groove packs. In fact, he posted a time of 37.729, five and a half seconds faster than Rey's time.
"We determined that the number 69 pulled out a truck that did not have a restrictor plate, which we require all race cars to have this weekend," said Brian Weaver, NFRN's Executive Inspection Officer. "The truck was a safety hazard to everyone else making a run, so we forced him to park it for the session and the team will need to either install the plate or find another truck for the race." Crew chief Richard Sepp said the issue was an oversight on their part. "Pigcency Racing had trucks prepared for either situation because the league didn't inform us until late whether we would use restrictor plates or not," Sepp said. "Our backup apparently didn't have it, so we're getting a plated truck sent from the shop." The league is not expected to hand down penalties for the incident since it was outside of qualifying or race sessions. Recency's time was disallowed on today's charts. Here are the top 10 practice times that counted in the first NTS session of 2017: 1) Roger Rey - 43.177 (95 laps) 2) Derek Anderline - 43.264 (92) 3) Trevor Nicks - 43.305 (93) 4) Jim Fowler - 43.334 (88) 5) Jasper Rowles - 43.452 (96) 6) Jason Langley - 43.466 (89) 7) Dalton Wise - 43.544 (91) 8) Moses Osborne - 43.591 (92) 9) Adam Coon - 43.684 (93) 10) Dylan Lexton - 43.707 (93) |
