You'll have to research the rest of the story. The finalist didn't do anything wrong himself, so I won't mention his name here.
And the rest of the story W.A.Lee told me was about a couple of dragsters in Comp, the first guy was a whole dragster length out in front and still lost.

Kinda makes you stop and think doesn't it.
