Issues with accepted parts has been going on for many years.

In 1966 the car I was partners on was thrown out at Indy for a Chevy cam that was not accepted even though it was the only cam you could buy from a Chevy dealer at the time. It was right out of the GM tube. We were the class R/UP and the winner was also thrown out. Not sure but I thought he was also tossed for his camshaft. Same engine/car combo. A few weeks after Indy we received a letter stating the cam we were tossed for was now accepted and ok!

Cheater (duration) cams may have been out there already but we did not have one.

50+ years later same stuff still happening
