It's the same thing Anderson did in 2019, if they don't knock him out early, Erica's title hopes are dim.

I attended 2 events that Anderson did this. 2012 Vegas (when Alan Johnson won the championship) and 2014 World Finals (when Erica won the championship). Both times to help Jason Line. BUT personally I see nothing wrong with that ! It's within the rules and it makes things exciting.
Having said that, I hope Anderson gets the championship this year.

I'd like to be irritated about this as a fan at the race. However, since I am a Greg fan and was not mad when he did it, I can't be mad now. I am not a hypocrite. I do hope the Elite sandbagging is just as unsuccessful as Greg's was! Right now he would face Christian Cuadra round 1 which works out fine.

Cuadra did some dyno testing down with Elite this week. Not saying there is an alliance, but I wouldn’t bet against it.

Ends up Troy after all since Greg went to #1. Would meet Erica in semis if both win round 1 and 2

I don’t have a problem with it when they are open and admit it like Anderson has in the past. To dodge the questions, lie and insult a fan’s intelligence isn’t cool. Not that I have much intelligence to insult, lol.

HEY HEY HEY......I thought we weren't supposed to talk about politics here!
Oh, wait...... sorry. You were talking racing. Carry on......
I think it's Greg's year this year, at least I hope so.....or else I just wasted another PTW.....
X2 on Greg, Look at the guys leasing his motors. Top of qualifying. It used to be Elite but...As I said before, Jason is retired from driving and he has a lot of motor background experience especially, NASCAR. He mentioned many years ago when interviewed, Which do you prefer...Driving a Pro Stock car or being at the shop building motors and working them on the dyno? Well, his answer was, being at the shop.
I dont have a problem with posturing (openly or secretly). I do have issues with taking dives though. Fans paid to see a race not a swim meet.

Was hoping EE would be the one lagging back, especially since she wasn't contending for little points. That would've been great. Greg looks to be in control, driving well and the best performances at the moment. I never count out EE, she's been clutch so often. Struggling of late.

Shows what I know. Great race.
WOW - What a bad time for Troy's car to "Malfunction".
They have identical reaction time and coughlin Jr. has the lead until just past half track. Coughlin Jr.'s car went silent and Enders drove around for the win.
A great way to take a knee for the Elite team! He also mentioned at the top that he will do anything so Elite wins the championship! Hope Richard is proud!
