What officials does NASCAR answer to?

Each team is assigned an official who watch them during the weekend and whatever the any of the officials say are double checked by a second official (beside a pit stop penalty). After an official reports something NASCAR reacts. If an official is wrong and he admits it NASCAR will fix the issue. example: 2011 in the nationwide race a NASCAR official said Brian Scott said that a tire had a missing lug nut and Brian Scott was given a pass through. But the official was wrong admitted it and they through a caution to give Brian his spot on the track back.
