NASCAR confiscates parts from both Penske cars

   Both Penske Racing cars my face penalties this week after NASCAR confiscated the rear end housing and other parts from both cars before Saturday night's NRA 500 at Texas Motor Speedway.

   Both the No. 2 Ford driven by Brad Keselowski and the No. 22 Ford driven by teammate Joey Logano went through pre-race inspection at least twice on Saturday before NASCAR had both teams remove parts from the rear end of both cars.

   So long as both cars still passed inspection, the drivers would assume their respective starting positions for the start of the race.

   Any NASCAR penalties would generally be released by Tuesday.
