So I had literally just gotten this new camera and mounted it as a rear-facing to review after my race and 1 lap into the race at turn 11 of Gingerman, my left rear wheel detached.
Turns out it was a complete hub failure to blame (makes me happy I have a cheap race car to play with!)
BTW: The car was fixed by 10:30pm with a replacement spindle/hub/brake/wheel and was back on track the next day for more fun! Gotta love a quick fix for something that seems so drastic!
