Things you were bounced for in the olden days when there wer

Cool thread.
I heard one second hand from the "ole days" that was pretty funny. A Stock class racer made a pass and proceeded to get out of his car, with helmet in hand, prior to scaling. He then walked away from his car, picked up a large piece of lead that he had hidden in the weeds and placed it inside his helmet. He then hopped back in his car and strolled across the scales. Of course he must have been caught or I wouldn't have heard this story.

Another good one was a fellow that was caught with loose lead ballast in his trunk. From what I was told, the official grabbed it and tossed it on the ground. The official then went about his business, while the racer then grabbed the ballast and tossed it back in his trunk.
