Truck rear spoiler
Last week I watched the Homestead Truck race (Great racing! Currently I am watching the Martinsville Truck race; Maybe Truck racing is even better as Cup and N'wide racing!
![]() a) Why requires NASCAR this piece of tape? They use it on Homestead but also on a short track like Martinsville. b) Why do they not make the spoiler from one part? Or do they adjust the right and left spoiler different? ![]() |

There is a split down the middle to allow tech to fit the profile template. The tape is probably there to stop teams running wider gaps in the spoiler = less drag = faster.
Just an educated guess. Look at the rear spoiler on my car (see avatar pic) |
