DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – NASCAR officials announced Wednesday that Todd Berrier, crew chief of the No. 29 NASCAR Winston Cup Series team, has been fined $25,000 due to a rule infraction discovered last week at Chicagoland Speedway following the Tropicana 400.
In addition, NASCAR has penalized the team's driver, Kevin Harvick, 25 NASCAR Winston Cup Series championship driver points and team owner Richard Childress 25 NASCAR Winston Cup Series championship owner points.
During the event's pre-race inspection process, the rear suspension of the No. 29 Chevrolet was found to have an unapproved travel limiting device, a violation of Section 12-4-Q of the 2003 NASCAR Winston Cup Series Rule Book (parts and/or equipment used that do not conform to NASCAR rules) and Section 12-4-A (actions detrimental to stock car racing).
