Default Pretty Scary Track Experience

So i went to the track last night, only got to run twice. First run, i spun through 1st, ran a 14.2 or something crappy like that.

The 2nd run, a fox went before me, and spilled antifreeze near the end of the track. Before the scoreboard.

So, i got a really good R/T (.026) and a pretty good 60' (2.0) and im flying down the track and at that point im going around 95 and i hit this antifreeze. I have never felt this in my life, going 95 i felt like i was losing traction, and RPMS shot up and my back end was coming out. Somehow I got traction, the car shook a bit and i had almost pissed myself. It sucks because i was most likely going to have a pretty good time.

They shut down the track after me for about an hour to clean it all up. By then i just left.

I can't catch a break. lol.
