I don't think the grudge race is what's being called into question. What is being called in is Rizzi's 4.6001 pass. He posted a picture of just the times, no car number or track info at the top.
Oh for sure- Tony got to the stripe first. Ive just always been amazed at the lengths some will go to try to avoid admitting they smoked the lights.
I did see a comment where he said he knew the 60ft time was off but wouldnt attest to not actually running a 4.60 because of it.

Phil Baker has a way cooler timeslip.
From my experience with smoking the lights in the past I can say I know exactly how it works....
I called out tony on this last year, and again few days ago.
Here is the issue.
When you smoke the lights, smoke remains in the bulbs and you won't red light, so you can leave super early and get a huge head start on the competition, then becaise of the incorrectly timed start the rest of the run is bogus that's why the 60 is so lightning fast, mph is the only true figure.
A man of integrity should have said this ain't right if he knew it, and the man with the correct slip wins, or both get re run.
That's how you handle things correctly.
Now it's been said that we need to be professional, yes I agree, but that starts in the shop, making sure your engine and exhaust is clean and not pointed out to the beams, make passes to verifie your legit, then race in competition and stay off the high school drama team online...... this makes you processional.

Not to mention Ryan treed Tony and didn't go red so there's no way Tony red lit on their grudge race.
