Is it a fail because the shell casing is included with the load?

Can't tell if there is a load in the shell casing or not. All I see is a brass case and a bullet. There might be a load in the casing there might not.

Race weekend fail.

We think the control arm broke going thru T9 and took out the trailing arm upon failing. I spun pretty much staying on the blacktop, came full around and was pointed to go straight into the dirt and just drove right back on headed to the pits.

I was basically on a cool down lap at that point too.

Had it apart pretty quick but unable to source parts shut the weekend down.

not sure whether there is a load or not, website makes it appear like there isn't. either way, what did they do, throw the 'bullet'??

I've seen people throw guns (in the movies) but nvr this
