Weeeelp.... F the Monkey.
This mornings session we used it for some last minute chassis adjustments for a warmer track than we had in qualifying.
After some in and outs and changes we threw down a 1:21.2 and was very stoked for the race
Bryan had a great start clawing his way back to the lead after dropping to 3-4 on the start (lack of torque)
As the race was progressing we started to go into conservation mode early ..dropping back to p2 (we had +15 on p3)
Brian liked the changes we made in morning warmup and had settled into a nice pace.
In turn 3 he drifted out and the right rear hit the exit curbing and possibly a hole on the back side of it.
As soon as the tire ran over the curb / and or hole..the RR shock broke/snapped.
Game over.
