Knaus knew in the conversation with JJ before the race he was outside of the template rule, and he instructed him to mess up the sheet metal after the race so he wouldn't be caught. These 2 examples are not the same and the intent is different.

In my book cheating with a car that won't match templates is also poor sportsmanship............................

That's bull and you know it. The car passed inspection at nascar's R&D center, the template prior to qualifying & during the prerace tech. Do they use a different template after the race??? The same car was used in the Spring Talledega race and went back-and-forth to the R&D center then too! There's a huge difference between cheating out right on rules that are in the book and having a car bumped drafted out of tolerances.

Anyone that lies about the facts to prove their point doesn't have the right attitude in their life.
