The gear box / shifter started getting tight...and right before that caution ...it wouldn't come out of 4th gear.
Then during the caution ...it loosened up..but not in a good way.
On the restart which was ,4th gear..webt to 5th but nobody home.
It killed us on the oval.
Car is in one piece...on to Cotas
I couldn't help but notice that towards the end after your gearbox went out you went from 16th to 15th... I laughed a bit knowing that you passed someone with a busted tranny.

Glad the car and drivers are all in one piece, the setup looks promising for the coming year.
