HAHAHA!!!! Yoy would not be the first to suffer that embarrassment!
.....I think anyone that has been on track has a similar story....I know I do!
True story #2: 6 or 7 years ago at an MCA open track event at the Nashville SuperSpeedway Roadcourse,a little gal,maybe 20 years old and 100 pounds soaking wet did the same to me in her daily driver Miata!!!!I started right behind her in our run group and within 3 laps not only could I not keep up with her, I could not even see her,she was that far a head of me!!!!!!!!!
The kicker was we found out that she had had 2 years of autocross expirence and was a top contender in her class.....she was sooooooo smooth on the track she actually looked slow, but lap times do not lie.......
Like Johnny said, it has happened to all of us and will probably happen again before it's all said and done.......
