Both the No. 10 and No. 16 Chevrolets from the Kaulig stable each were found with one unsecured lug nut in a post-race check after Saturday’s ToyotaCare 250. Those violations of Section 8.8.10.4a in the NASCAR Rule Book resulted in $5,000 fines to each crew chief — Jason Trinchere (No. 10 team) and Bruce Schlicker (No. 16).
Allmendinger, the Xfinity Series’ points leader, drove to a fourth-place finish Saturday at Richmond. Cassill wound up 15th in the 250-lapper.
