They're a team, and as such, they try and help each other. That's how every team operates. If you remember back in '07, Melanie Troxel was dominating Top Fuel for the first half of the season. Allen Johnson, crew chief for Tony Schumacher, went on national television and said that he had a long talk with Don Schumacher, the team owner, who also owned Melanie's team, and they agreed that Melanie would not be leading the points anymore and that Tony would take over. Low and behold, Melanie couldn't get a decent tune on her car for five or six races and Tony took over the points lead and went on to win the championship. Since Don Schumacher owned both cars, the orders were to pull Melanie back so Tony could take over. That interview only aired once needless to say.

Tony Pedragon was pissed at that race and called John Force out because with Robert Height winning that round and making it into the countdown, it bumped his brother, Cruz, out of the countdown.
