Had my first race today with my new car. What a day. Spent all day in the rain Sat getting ready. I pull up on the scales at the track 15 mins before hotlaps and try to go but lose my clutch. Something happened to my hydraulic TOB so I run without the clutch. Put my brakes on 50/50 and head out for heat race. I go in turn one and hit the brakes to turn and push right into the wall. Get going and take it easy through 3 and 4. I figure I didnt run it hard enough so I go all out and hit brakes again and push again. This time harder. I finally adjusted all the way to back brakes and slammed on them, almost turned into the tow truck cleaning up a wreck . I mangeled the bumper, bumper mount bar, RF wheel, maybe balljoint and spindle. Ive got about 2 inches of toe out on RF when LF is straight. Oh well lesson learned but it was FUN! I've got some pics coming.
