While racing this weekend, the car was doing well during the first qualifier but with about 30 seconds to go everytime i would throttle going out of the turn the car would spin. I thought maybe i blew a rear diff but i had one of the guys look at it and he said the rear diff was fine. So i went ahead and tried the 2nd qualifier and the same thing happened. During the qualifier someone rammed me in the back of the car and broke the shock. the metal bar broke in half.

I checked all the links and everything seems fine. Do you think maybe the shock was getting ready to break anyway and couldnt handle the weight of the car during the turns? I have never had a spinning problem with the mugen. I have been able to turn while on throttle with no problems before. Granted that day a couple people were having problems with spinning, but i dont think like what i had. i could not control it.
