It just isn't meant to be.....

Get to the shop and it just starts to drizzle. One of those where it tinkles for about a minute or 2. Then it stops.

Figured cool, I'll let it dry up a bit and make my run. (was a beautiful day here)

Get the kart warmed up and head over to the testing track. Give her a hard launch and get a little of that slipping/wheel hop I mentioned in a prior post, and a little tire spin. (turf tires on seal coat concrete) Kart pulled as good as normal, but I backed off a bit soon. That tire spin concerned me. Glad I did too. Got down to the end, started my left hand turn and started braking when the ass end passed me up.

She went into a spin and came to an abrupt stop (180*) right in the same spot where that car was parked yesterday. So, no testing done today either.
