It might still be relevant/admissible if it were being offered for a permissible purpose relating to the initial confrontation at the car. But yes, it certainly wouldn't be as helpful for the defense if there was solid evidence that there was a significant time, distance, and circumstance separation between whatever happened at the car and whatever happened further away. In fact, it'd be a shitty defense. Which is maybe all you're saying. But defendants are still allowed to put on shitty defenses if the evidence is admissible.
