My instructor also spun off the track on the same day, just over the hill. He did not recover (nor did he break anything), but he had a really nice California Special. Maybe it was the Elvis in the car . . .
I did the same spin last year in the same place, but it was because my brakes were idiotically biased way rearward, not because I went into second gear.
Here's to future racing on dry pavement . . .

It was awesome fun. But yeh, momentum car at the least.
Great find by the way. Love those cars. BTW, the windshield in that was the easiest and fastest shield i've ever replaced, like 7 minutes included washing it down. I beleive your model was glued in, slows down the installation but still super easy nonetheless. Probably useless info, but hey, what are forums for lol
