The No. 98 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series team of Ty Majeski was penalized before Sunday’s Clean Harbors 175 at the Milwaukee Mile Speedway (4 p.m. ET, FS1, MRN, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio). NASCAR officials confiscated a right-rear tire in pre-race inspection, a tire that will not be replaced.

Crew chief Joe Shear was ejected and the team will have to start from the rear of the field and do a pass-through penalty. A NASCAR spokesperson said any additional penalties would come later in the week.
Majeski, who drives for ThorSport Racing, won the playoff opener on Aug. 11 at Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park and is ranked first in the playoff standings.
