In sports, you often see judgment calls made by game officials according to the game’s rules. In NASCAR, it is no different. However, in other sports, fans have access to the rule books via the web, which allows them to educate themselves on the rules if they have a question about the way the game is played, a penalty, etc.
In NASCAR, taking a peek at the rule book will cost you $400.
Sure, NASCAR will let you see their points system, what their flags mean, and what different terms mean for free. That’s all fine and good for the new fans. But what about the educated fans, whose questions lie in the gray areas of NASCAR’s management?
Fans often critisize NASCAR for not being perfectly clear on their “rules”. And if you want to see these “rules”, you can join NASCAR and get a NASCAR rule book. But it’s going to cost you $400.
Don’t believe me? Check out Section 4 of this page from Jayski.com, the only website I could find with any information on NASCAR’s rule book.

Want to see NASCAR’S rules? That’ll be $400.
Note: For legal reasons, no website that has access to NASCAR’s rules is allowed to post them anywhere. The ONLY way to get a hold of a NASCAR rule book is to join NASCAR and pay $400.

Actually any qualified member of the media is given a copy of each years rule book, for free…all they have to do is ask…
Greg, first, thank you for commenting!
Second, it’s good that the media can get a copy of the rule book. The problem is that it still leaves us fans out in the cold. There is no way for us to get a copy of our sport’s rules, unless we’re willing to part with $400.
Thing is, without us, the sport wouldn’t be able to operate. So we should be entitled to see a copy of the rules for free as well.
won’t disagree with that…just wanted to point out that not everyone has to pay for a rulebook…
Gotcha. Thanks Greg!
P.S. Could somebody like(a blogger) me get a free rule book?
I have no idea…maybe if you were on NASCAR’s citizen journalist list…
