And, forgive my ignorance, but how do you cheat in a heads up index class ?
By using something that's against the rules to give you an advantage. For example, optical devices that detect when the tree runs and open the throttle at precisely the right point to give you a great RT every time. Or those that detect where you are on the track and whether you're on target for your desired ET, adjusting the throttle accordingly to ensure you cross the line at the right moment. Or those using traction control. I'm not going to name names, but I've raced against people using traction control. I didn't object because it wasn't giving them enough of an advantage for it to bother me. I suspect there are people deliberately breaking the rules in most of the sportsman classes. And probably several of the pro classes too. No, I don't understand it. But I guess that for some people, winning is everything.I didnt even know you could have all your entries paid for winning the championship either.

Personally I don't see the need for cheating, if you get caught you get disqualified and after that nobody is going to trust you again and eyes will be on you all the time.
