Each of this week\u2019s filings were either a sealed response to a motion, or an opposition to a motion.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s a breakdown of what happened this week.<\/p>\n<p>The first opposition was sent in by 23XI\/FRM on Wednesday (Oct. 15), opposing NASCAR\u2019s motion for summary judgement and asking for the court to deny the motion.<\/p>\n<p>The teams followed with a defense of their own expert Timothy Frost, after NASCAR motioned to have Frost excluded. The teams believe Frost\u2019s time as a consultant in the motorsports world qualifies him to be an expert.<\/p>\n<p>The next opposition goes against NASCAR\u2019s motion to exclude testimony from Dr. Daniel A. Rascher. The teams say Rascher \u201cproperly defined the relevant market,\u201d and that NASCAR doesn\u2019t have enough basis for exclusion.<\/p>\n<p>The teams also go against NASCAR\u2019s motion to exclude Dr. Edward Snyder\u2019s expertise and testimony. Dr. Snyder made comparisons between Formula 1 and NASCAR, and the teams believe that he should be allowed to stay as an expert in the case testimony.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, NASCAR got in a filing opposing the team\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/frontstretch.com\/2025\/10\/04\/heres-what-happened-in-the-23xi-frm-vs-nascar-lawsuit-this-week-sept-27-oct-3\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">motion<\/a> for partial summary judgement on the market definition and monopsony power.<\/p>\n<p>They also filed an opposition to the teams\u2019 desire to have Steve O\u2019Donnell\u2019s expert testimony excluded, also opposing the partial exclusion of Paul Meyer\u2019s testimony.<\/p>\n<p>The teams believe NASCAR broke the rules with how notice of O\u2019Donnell\u2019s testimony was given. NASCAR argues that they followed the rules.<\/p>\n<p>NASCAR says Meyer\u2019s testimony is misunderstood, mischaracterized, and his sources, steps, and computations were all disclosed.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/frontstretch.com\/2025\/10\/10\/23xi-frm-vs-nascar-anti-trust-case-this-week-oct-4-10\/\" class=\"vlp-link\" title=\"Here&#039;s What Happened in the 23XI\/FRM vs NASCAR Anti-Trust Case This Week (Oct. 4-10)\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img data-perfmatters-preload=\"\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"max-width: 150px;\" width=\"150\" height=\"100\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/2025-Las-Vegas-1-bubba-wallace-tyler-reddick-racing-NKP-150x100.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"#45: Tyler Reddick, 23XI Racing, The Beast Toyota Camry#23: Bubba Wallace, 23XI Racing, U.S. Air Force Toyota Camry Homestead\"   fetchpriority=\"high\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s What Happened in the 23XI\/FRM vs NASCAR Anti-Trust Case This Week (Oct. 4-10)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/frontstretch.com\/2025\/10\/04\/heres-what-happened-in-the-23xi-frm-vs-nascar-lawsuit-this-week-sept-27-oct-3\/\" class=\"vlp-link\" title=\"Here&#039;s What Happened in the 23XI\/FRM vs. NASCAR Lawsuit This Week (Sept. 27-Oct. 3)\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img data-perfmatters-preload=\"\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"max-width: 150px;\" width=\"150\" height=\"100\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/1759842608_80_2025-cup-kansas-i-23xi-racing-teammates-corey-heim-riley-herbst-tyler-reddick-bubba-wallace-credit-j.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"#67: Corey Heim, 23XI Racing, Robinhood Toyota Camry, #35: Riley Herbst, 23XI Racing, Tree Top Toyota Camry, #45: Tyler Reddick, 23XI Racing, Xfinity Mobile Toyota Camry, #23: Bubba Wallace, 23XI Racing, Columbia Toyota Camry\"   fetchpriority=\"high\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s What Happened in the 23XI\/FRM vs. NASCAR Lawsuit This Week (Sept. 27-Oct. 3)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/frontstretch.com\/2025\/09\/26\/what-happened-23xi-front-row-nascar-antitrust-lawsuit-this-week\/\" class=\"vlp-link\" title=\"Here\u2019s What Happened in the 23XI\/Front Row vs. NASCAR Antitrust Lawsuit This Week (Sept. 20-26)\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img data-perfmatters-preload=\"\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"max-width: 150px;\" width=\"150\" height=\"100\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/2025-Daytona-I-Cup-duels-tyler-reddick-bubba-wallace-racing-nkp-150x100.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"#45: Tyler Reddick, 23XI Racing, Nasty Beast Toyota Camry, #56: Martin Truex Jr, TRICON Garage, Bass Pro Shops\/Tracker Boats Toyota Camry\"   fetchpriority=\"high\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s What Happened in the 23XI\/Front Row vs. NASCAR Antitrust Lawsuit This Week (Sept. 20-26)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/frontstretch.com\/donate\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/frontstretch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/frontstretch-donate.avif\" width=\"728\" height=\"90\" alt=\"Donate to Frontstretch\" class=\"wp-image-1366571\"\/><\/a><br \/>\n<a class=\"m-a-box-avatar-url\" href=\"https:\/\/frontstretch.com\/author\/cbarnes\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/1760769491_967_774b907a54b1547530e975e04507ccf378520c0fe6327fda54dd7f8b947f89ca\"  class=\"avatar avatar-150 photo\" height=\"150\" width=\"150\" itemprop=\"image\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Caleb began sports writing in 2023 with The Liberty Champion, where he officially covered his first NASCAR race at Richmond in the spring.
