You were hustling that old girl around pretty damn well!

So sorry to hear this John. I'll miss chatting with Terry in your pit. RIP

That'd be my Type 1. If it were happening conistently in a corner, I'd either be cussing out whoever dropped oil or looking at my setup. Unless I were setting track records.
