Said Reassigned to 31st After Front Row Motorsports Connection Revealed

Despite a strong run at Watkins Glen this Sunday, Boris Said had his finishing position relegated to 31st place. Nascar said the move was directly related to his alliance with Front Row Motorsports for the race.
"After we examined Boris' entry, and saw where the points were going, we had no choice", explained Nascar spokesman Jim Hunter. "There is no way we are going to see a Front Row Motorsports car record a top-10 in ANY race, no matter who's driving or what his hairstyle is."
Said's agreement with FRM CEO Bob "Not the Announcer" Jenkins had the points from Said's finish going to the team. This information went unnoticed until shortly after the completion of the race.
"They thought they could fool us by using a different number, actual sponsorship, and a talented driver", explained Hunter, "but we know a FRM run when we see one. As soon as he went past the inner loop, we knew something was up."
Jenkins could not be reached for comment, as his phone number has been disconnected for months. However, Said was quite disappointed after the move.
"Why couldn't I have just raced for NEMCO like Ron (Fellowes) always does? Or whoever owns the 02 car? That's the last time I join up with a team whose very name is a lie."
Nascar has made similar moves in the past--this is known as the "Derrike Cope rule", referring to Cope's 1990 win at the Daytona 500, which required everyone involved in Nascar to refer to Derrike Cope as the 1990 Daytona 500 winner ever since.
