Following the race at Atlanta Motor Speedway last weekend, NASCAR officials reprimanded two Xfinity Series teams on Tuesday for lug-nut violations.
After the Alsco Uniforms 250 Xfinity Series race on Saturday, the No. 7 JR Motorsports Chevrolet driven by Justin Allgaier and the No. 48 Big Machine Racing Chevy driven by Parker Kligerman both had one unsecured lug nut.
As a result, crew chiefs James Pohlman (car no. 7) and Patrick Donahue (car no. 48) received $5,000 fines each for violating Section 8.8.10.4a of the NASCAR Rule Book regarding safety.
Kligerman earned his third top-10 result in the last four races by placing eighth in the Atlanta race. Allgaier who has already won one Xfinity Series race this season came in 17th.
