Do NASCAR cars have shocks or struts?
Shocks.
How do you check worn struts?
A fairly quick and fast way I check struts is I put all my weight down on the hood and give it a push, if your struts are good, it will not allow the car to bounce at all, it will basically absorb the shock and your struts are okay, otherwise your car will bounce excessively and its time to change out you struts. Same procedure for you rears, except they should be coil over shocks and less complex as most cars front suspensions.
Does a front wheel drive car need back wheel alignment?
If it is out of specification the rear, yes. If it is in specification, no. Makes sense, doesn't it! Some cars have adjustable alignment angles in the rear, and do indeed call for a four-wheel alignment. On many cars, there are no rear adjustments, but the front wheels should be aligned with respect to the rear, what is properly called a thrust-angle alignment. Unfortunately, many shops are not careful with their terminology and use the term "four-wheel alignment" when they really mean "thrust-angle alignment." Even so, they usually correctly distinguish between cars that have alignable rear ends and those that don't, and price the job accordingly. As to whether your car has an alignable rear end, you'll need to refer to a shop manual to find out.
