I forgot to mention. Racing today was alright. I went out today and forgot I had zero bump in the rear. I fixed that before the a-main and I added some wintergreen alcohol to the tires to clean them and increase traction. Car stuck like glue afterwards!

Sadly I sat on my lid for a good 30 seconds during the A-main.

I went from 2nd in the qualifiers to 5th or worse in the a-main. I guess it was a hot day cause 4 times when my car either flipped or got stuck they sat there for 10 seconds before anyone even moved.

I hate that the most because It wasnt skill or the car that made me loose.
