Another favorite with bending the rules is where NASCAR drivers would place a lead helmet or water bottle in their car during pre-race inspection to bring the weight up. The cars weren't weighed after the race so they got away with it. They used to do a similar thing by hiding lead shot inside the frame rails, which would be dumped onto the track on the first lap. Some people got as much as 300 pounds of shot in the cars! It must have been intresting to try to race on that stuff.
