Maybe, but it's not worth a tenth. Besides, how many heads up runs does anyone see in eliminations? Sure, he was running class, but the guy races a lot. He has no need to cheat, especially at the most obvious place to check..
For those who don't know, he's a good guy and a excellent driver. He comes from a racing family of nice people.
Move on.
