Motorsports is littered with Guys that embezzled to Fund their Teams! Mostly Sportscars, but Drag Racing, IndyCar & F-1 has seen it. Their was also a Reason that a nickname of IMSA was International Marijuana Smugglers Association - The Whittington Bros, John Paul Sr, & Randy Lanier were some of the Biggest Drug Dealers in America. Even Pablo Escobar had Race Cars
The Feds are really after Scott Tucker now. Tax Evasion through PayDay Loan Companies that charge beyond the Legal Limit on Interest. He did it by "Rent a Tribe", paying Indian Tribes to be the "Front" of the Company. He basically used the same formula in Racing (Level 5 Racing) as Jon Field but upped the Ante by hiring the Top Drivers to race with him (Franchitti, Briscoe, Brabham, Hunter-Reay, etc)
