Whoops looks like 4th to 3rd instead of 5th, wheels locked up on you… way to hold it together, but then you tried to power through the grass on slicks….
Time to check your valves, that’s how I blew my last engine… TIV though, 5th to 2nd, locked wheels and spun, bent a valve that ultimately broke off and put a piston through the top of the case…. |

Hey John...!
Your line (not the ideal angle) approaching T2 combined with your downshift (and possibly braking) led to your spin...I've seen it there many times. It is off-camber at that apex (which you were right of); I can help you dial that in. Call me when you have time and we'll address some other areas, too. Happy Thanksgiving! Tony |
