No, never bottomed out. and the track thing... Ya I wanted to go fast sure, that was my intention. but it was the first session of the day and I had to start dead last because of the lead follow situation. The car quit on lap 4. I get the track excuse and understand it completely. But in this case it truly had nothing to do with what happened here.
