Driver cross-entry was all part of the rules during Group C & Group A, and pretty much all multi-car teams deployed the tactic.
That Brock was the only person locally who could utilise the tactic to win shouldn't be held against him.
On topic and relevant to the 1988 great race, Larry put Walkinshaw into his car towards the end when running 3rd, to give him a win should the race go their way.
He received a blown engine for his trouble...
The prior year the German factory BMW drivers swapped in and out of their team cars so often no one really knew who was in which car at any point in time.
It gave them enough points in the end to claim the WTCC title, something which is never ever complained about on here.
