That was awesome, right up until that last bit. What happened?

Crap! Was there fluid down? I saw the other cars off in 3-4. Really nice driving otherwise. Funny after the missed shift in Hogs Pen. Thanks for sharing!

I honestly didn't know what had happened either. All I had to do was drive a clean lap, and I was good to go.

After watching the video, it looks like I grabbed 2nd gear, then quickly put it in 4th, but I guess the load, turn-in, let the clutch out was too much for me. :P

LOL. Same thing happened last race correct (somewhat). I was the lead car in both races, except I was the one that went off THIS TIME.

May be time for a new shifter. Or, a new driver.
