I love Street Outlaws, no mopars

So I watched last nights episode and right at 43 minutes in there is a race between a black S10 truck and The (hero's) car from New Orleans (NO).

The race starts with NO's car jumping out slightly. Then the cameras show the race views from the sides of the cars and from behind. The race is close with both cars running side by side. If you watch closely you can clearly see the S10 from Arkansas catching NO's car and just as he's gonna drag him, he (S10) puts on his brakes. This happens about 3/4 of the way down the track. He's not peddling, he's not correcting a spin, he just brakes, just as he was about to pass the NO car.

One word.

STAGED

Don't believe me? I rewound and replayed it 30 times just to believe it. The third tail light is bright like the sun for just a second...enough time to let the NO driver stay ahead and win.
