I knew I had to have broken something at the Jump @ Weatherl

Post by JekylandHyde »

I thought Hyde felt a little sloppier at Pagoda than I am used to.
After my last run I had mentioned to some of the other drivers that the car really felt like it leaned into "oh crap" weird ... I felt all of the weight of the car lean on the front right. This is weird since Hyde is usually very stiff.

Well, last night cruising home on I78 I found out why :(
My end link on my sway bar broke at the weld and bent around like a pretzel gouging my new Kumho and scraping my rim. The tire is destroyed. This really sucks because it was practically new ... only 1.5 races on it :(

Gotta love racing.

At least I will be all fixed up for Giant's.
