I don't think anybody can answer your question because you can never seem to formulate it clearly. For example, you wrote, "if two events are simultaneous in one frame, and not in another, will the time order necessarily be reversed in that frame and all others" Notice that you don't even say the time order of what; probably not the simultaneous pair since it be no change to reverse them. So it must refer to "the other frame" and you ask will the time order be reverse in "that frame and all others". But that makes no sense, of course they won't be reversed "in that frame". If they're reversed it must be in some third frame. And you ask "will the time order necessarily be reversed"...If what? If the car goes faster or slower. Your question is of the form, "If X will Y."
You remind me of an elderly argumentative engineer, Jim Johnson, I used to work with. Jim would proudly assert, "Nobody can prove anything to me if I don't want them to."
