Well, I don't know if you'd call it cheating or
not. I guess you could. The way the rules read and the way
they're interpreted, sometimes you have a very, very broad
span to work in. And a lot of times the first person that thinks of
anything, or the first person that comes up with the best fast track, is
the one they call cheating. We have a rule book to go by, and we take
that as far as we can stretch it. And a lot of times that could be
cheating determined on who interpreted the rule. It's very
rarely now that you see a guy who'll go out and build a big
motor, we'll say. That is outright cheating. Or,
he'll go out and make his car too wide, or off-set his car,
run it too low to the ground, run with wide wheels, and all kinds of
stuff like that. That's out and outright cheating. But what
we do and what we've been accused of, ever since
I've been building my own cars, is cheating. And when you
cheat them ways that I mentioned, you are cheating. We stay away from
that. What we do do, if NASCAR says you can run the car twenty-six
inches off the ground, that's counting on the lowside, we run
it twenty-six inches. A lot of

can't run them twenty-six inches, run twenty-six and a half,
twenty-seven. They don't build their cars where they take
advantage of the rule book, and for that reason, they wind up getting
hurt. Not only that, they get to believing that everybody's
cheating cause they're getting beat.
