Do NASCAR cars have windshield wipers?

It’s said that this helps a NASCAR car go a little faster. If you take a careful look during the next NASCAR race, you’ll notice that many drivers have their wipers parked upright.
NASCAR windshield wipers are larger than your average ones—1.5 inches wide and 2.5 inches high.
