Overview

• Parker Kligerman's win in the Fresh From Florida 250 was overturned after his truck failed post-race ride height checks, with the rear measuring too low.
• Kligerman and Henderson Motorsports argued that NASCAR's inspection instructions to raise the truck's front end caused the rear to fall out of compliance by a quarter inch.
• The National Motorsports Appeals Panel denied Kligerman's appeal, stating the violation was 'more likely than not,' leaving no further avenues for appeal.
• Critics, including former drivers and industry insiders, have called the ride height rule outdated and overly punitive, with some suggesting it creates opportunities for manipulation during inspections.
• This marks the second high-profile disappointment for Kligerman in recent months, following a controversial caution call that cost him a potential win at the Charlotte Roval in 2024.
