It's not possible to build a car that strong under Nascar rules. The cars are mostly standardized with only minor differences allowed between teams.

Does Nascar disallow mounting a few luggage wheels on the right side of your car? :)

Ha ha, but seriously that wouldn't pass the pre-race template inspection.

But sirs, we like to travel with it on its side in the trailer so we can transport it more easily.

It probably would violate the external profile standards, even if the regulators wouldn't understand the purpose on first seeing it.

How much camber is allowed on the right wheels though, can you go full hella-flush? Asking for a friend :)

I considered this first. But I imagine the camber change would ruin the insides of the tires so fast that it wouldn't be worth the wall rolling benefits...
Perhaps a better idea would be some kind of aerodynamic change which would result in a trapped pressure area on the right side when it is close to the wall. Maybe some kind of concave side.

An F1 style 'wall-effect' skirt with a side mounted exhaust would do the trick I think. Have to stay on throttle to keep off the wall.

Have a crew member kick in the right place to create a vortex gap and Eraknoplan it?

Camber increases as the suspension compresses...
