The #20 that Tony Stewart drove while racing for Joe Gibbs, remained with Joe Gibbs Racing. It is now Joey Logano's number. Being that Stewart had to choose a new number after he left, he chose #14. This was done in honor of his childhood idol, A.J. Foyt.
The question of whether NASCAR should continue racing during oil crises has been broached on several occasions, namely during the oil shortages of the 70's as well as the price inflations of the 2000's. In the 70's races were shortened in an effort to save precious fuel. Today, this is less of a concern, as the fuel used in a typical NASCAR race is of a much higher octane and would be unsafe to use in a typical street car.
Yes, Nascar does have traffic lights on their tracks. They are set up at various locations on the track in a horizontal position. The yellow light will come on when there is a caution, the green light stays on while the drivers are racing and the red light is used if the race is red flagged.
