Dale Earnhardt Jr. calls for stricter enforcement of rules in NASCAR following a physical attack on driver Matt Tifft.

Dale Earnhardt cited the fallout from a recent troubling incident in a message to NASCAR. Last weekend, former NASCAR driver Matt Tifft got kicked in the face by an opposing crew member after an ASA STARS National Tour race at Toledo Raceway.

Tifft, who now competes in the ASA STARS National Tour, found himself embroiled in a post-race altercation after being taken out of the race by seventh-place finishers Billy VanMeter and Even Shotko. In an attempt to address the crash, Tifft approached the VanMeter team, only to be met with brutality.
