NASCAR weighs speed cuts after Allison wreck at Daytona
NASCAR officials opened an emergency study Tuesday to cut speeds after Bobby Allison’s Buick launched into the air near a packed grandstand at the Winston 500 in Alabama. Officials consider returning to 390 carburetors to curb horsepower and reduce high wing lift at major tracks with slower gains at smaller venues. Changes could take effect for the Firecracker 400 at Daytona Beach, with Ford teams likely hit hardest.
