It sounds like Walthrups team was looking for the "unfair advantage" since his Toyota may not have the speed to get into the race on it's own. While not the first time someone's been caught cheating on fuel in Nascar, it does remind me of the last time that a team was ejected from a WRC event? That would be...
(wait for it!!!!!)
... Toyota! That was a manifold issue too, but in that case they had developed a very trick manifold that bypassed the air restricter when the filter was installed.
And then there was the issue of being caught with an F1 competitor's design documents -- Toyota again.
Hmmmm, anyone seeing a trend?
