Teams use the results to provide a good baseline as to how their cars will respond over time and how the suspension components will endure over the course of a race.</p> <p>] 3.5 million cost</p> <p><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/YMSL_fqwOs8?rel=0" frameborder="0" width="420" height="315"></iframe></p> <h2>[REFERENCE]</h2> <ol> <li>] http://bleacherreport.com/articles/542395-nascar-sprint-cup-the-10-biggest-technological-innovations-of-the-last-10-years</li> </ol>
