Unfortunately for me I strip the composite gears in my center diff during Heat 1. I was running in 4th when the diff stripped enough that I wasn't able to clear the triple or step up leading onto the straight. My fast lap was 18.156 with a consistency of 93.7% before I broke.
I wasn't able to start Heat 2, since I was still trying to replace the composite gears with the stock metal ones. I was close though. I was reassembling the diff just as the 2nd Heat started to warm-up, but I still had to get it back in the buggy.
Since I didn't finish either Heat race I would start last, 9th of 9 cars. By lap 8 I worked my way up to 4th and was chasing down the top 3 cars. Third place makes a mistake and I pass him for 3rd. On the last lap the 2nd place car makes a mistake and needs a marshal. I follow him over the hip jump and land on top of his car by accident! Opps! I was able to get off his car without needing a marshal and make it over the line to claim 2nd! Not the cleanest way, but it's just a club race? I was driving a bit aggressive, after not completing both my heat races. I completed the main in 2nd with a 16:16, fast lap of 18.084, and consistency of 92.96%. The winner's consistency was 94.09%. I really need to stop crashing and get my consistency above 95%!
