I didn't hear what happened, any idea?

Oh you saw? Oops, sorry about that.
With the super hot track tonight, it was even more loose. I played a bit wih tire pressures to minimize it, but the car is designed that way. Tires and shocks can fix that.

I am glad I was able to see the facilities and the enthusiasts out for some fun and I promise the next time i will be solo to enjoy the whole experience.
Lesson learned.
I looked around for you to see if you wanted to head out with me, but couldnt find you. Next time!
