That is crap. (Not that it is you who is at fault for the crap...) Most drivers can drive almost anything as long as they aren't driving for their main sponsor that day. Occasionally they need permission, but that is seldom an issue. Look at all the car/team hoping weirdness that happens in Nascar, ALMS, Speed/SCCA series, etc... The exception might be a Coke driver driving a Pepsi car, but that is not the case.
