Topic: Team Oktoberfest Racing Sunday, Miata #19 spin in T8a

Our driver David L on Sunday. Last part of video shows him chasing White Miata #19 for about a lap before the Miata spins out in the esses.
@9:57 in video. Not really sure what happened to cause the spin....

A rigorous analysis indicates:

Miata goed too fast.

Unless it was a coolant line spewing water onto the road surface/rear tires interface, like my spin in the same place on Saturday morning. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.

Ignore this post. Nothing to see here.

How does one spin a Miata? I thought those things were as sticky as the booger you try to flick out of your car window?
