You might could do it if they have over 40 cars, but if you win a couple of rounds you will most certainly get in trouble later in the rounds and won't get back up in time, so you would automatically lose. It wouldn't be the track putting you out it would be the driver you are supposed to run, all he would have to do is stage and if you're not there it's over.

I guess I should pay closer attention. I could see the track saying he could do it and taking the entry fee but not being too concerned about holding up racing to make sure the second driver has a chance. Of course what I posted still applies but it will be a lot harder to keep up even with a car that will hot lap. Got to splash some fuel and switch drivers. With a bunch of cars you might be able to do that in the early rounds but it would be almost impossible to keep up if both drivers stay in for a few rounds. Zip has a good point, it would be a matter of the other driver waiting and even if he does the track usually will only let him wait so long.
