Bubba Wallace made his verdict to find out if Nascar should introduce additional horses to the cars in the series.
The debate on the increase in horses occurs after the calls of drivers and fans to do so, with the main vice-president of the NASCAR competition, Elton Sawyer, recently revealing that the sanction organization plans to go from 670 horsepower to potentially 750.
In addition, the change could emerge in this season, various stars Nascar expressing their opinion on change, in particular 23XI Racing Wallace.
“I think that (more power would help) everywhere, honestly,” Wallace told Nashville’s media.
“These cars are so close now and some of these tracks that we are going, the trip simply removes the possibility of passing. We just have to operate inside the sandbox given to us. That’s what it is.
“This is why the teams become so much more competitive and that the gap decreases, so I think that more powers brings you back to the feeling of the old school. It just puts it back in the hands of the driver and that’s what we want.”

Wallace supports additional nascar power
While Wallace supported a 750 horsepower increase, the 31-year-old estimates that any amount below this could be useless and even asked Nascar Go higher – as a joke also on an increase to 1,000.
“I think if you go in small increments, it’s like sticking a dressing on something,” he added.
“I do not ask for new (one hundred) but 750 at least or more, just to see if it is as easy and somewhat profitable as possible.”
Wallace called for power action as soon as possible, rejecting the idea of waiting for tests and rather testing an increase during a race to come.
“I think we need a big step. What are we afraid of? ” Wallace concluded.
“We have said for years that we want more power, and we were told that they were waiting for other manufacturers.
“Well, they are not in it, so let’s do something.”
