Rule tweak ?won?t change? Talladega

NASCAR Sprint Cup Series drivers do not expect Sunday's race at Talladega to be affected by new technical rules after testing the changes during Friday's practice sessions. Hoping to limit the tandem style of drafting that has prevailed at Daytona and Talladega this year, NASCAR issued a new restrictor-plate for this weekend's race, with an increase of 1/64th of an inch in the diameter of the plate holes which gives around a seven to 10 horsepower boost. Additionally a new calibration for the pop-off valve that controls maximum pressure in the radiator was also set in order to try to prevent drivers from pushing each other for as long as they have done in previous restrictor-plate races this year
