Normally through the course of a NASCAR weekend, the surface of this 2.5-mile track takes in bits of rubber as tires wear away and fill in the grooves created by the diamond-grinding that has been done to it.

Something was radically different this year. My hunch so far is the track but it could be the tar compound or the top heavy COTS cars.

They haven’t touched the track surface since 2005. What was different this year? The car.
