At restrictor plate races,NASCAR takes a 3400lb car & puts plates on their engines that choke(restrict)almost half of their power off,going from around 750HP down to around 400HP which also effectively kills throttle response,so that the drivers have to stay on the gas while in the midst of a big pack which more often than not results in the "big one"or in other words a 18+ car pile-up,JMO!
