Pretty sure he is referencing Jeff Taylor going -.176 red in the Defrank GT car vs Jimmy D in round 3. Winner received a 4th round bye. Personally, I don't have an issue with "team orders" but I can understand both sides.

I can see both sides. Not my business.

Impossible to prove or disprove......No way to police either if you
could prove it.

Why would it matter to anyone who is not on the team? That's what a team does, whatever it takes for the benefit of the team. Beginning of the year, end of the year, west coast, your coast.........................why would anyone care?

That's how it's done in a team atmosphere. All in for the team.

May not be orders at all. Maybe he just bulbed. Did you see DeFrank's lights in eliminations? The guy is a machine. He doesn't need anyone to take a dive for him.

But, if it was a dive, who cares. I supposed I'd give it away too if I lined up against the car's owner. I doubt DeFrank gave him any orders.

Well as I remember it was a couple of years ago when he got very close to the stock world championship, there was another one at Pomona also but who's counting. I never said it shouldn't happen, but at the end of the year everybody starts pointing fingers yet nothing is said at the start of the year, Also who is a team member?, are they team cars owned by one owner or do you just get paid to leave early or not show-up?
