īeginning in 2013, the livery layout for the NASCAR Cup Series was altered, coinciding with the change to the Generation 6 model car. The series sponsor's logo is displayed on top of the windshield, called the windshield header or windshield banner. These contingency decals represent series sponsors and bonus money teams are eligible to earn during the race, but may be omitted in the event in which they conflict with the team's sponsors or moral beliefs. Each car was until recently required to display a series of around 30 NASCAR sponsor decals just to the left of each door and on the front fenders, but recent developments have reduced the amount of decals significantly to only a handful. The front of the car and bottom of the rear bumper are required to match the decal specifications of the car manufacturer. Still, many of the rules, such as the scoring system, have been widely publicized both by NASCAR and the media.Įach car is required to display its number on each door of the car and on its roof. NASCAR issues a different rule book for each racing series however, rule books are published exclusively for NASCAR members and are not made available to the public.

The National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing ( NASCAR) makes and enforces numerous rules and regulations that transcend all racing series.
