Did anyone else experience this last night?

My buggy was fine up until round 3. I made a mistake on the right angled tabletop and immediately after I couldn't keep it in a straight line. The car itself is fine but there was an oily residue on the rear tyres, not from my shocks.

I changed the tyres and all was fine for a few laps until i repeated the same error.

I didn't, but I know Cameron did, and pretty sure Gareth had an issue too. Maybe someone lost shock oil or something?

ERRRRRRR, that would be my shock oil:blush:, the right rear blew out on me twice.

Sorry to the guys it affected.

Maybe it wasn't your ball diff but some oil progressively spreading across the track
