Spinning is pretty scary. I spun at NJMP Lightning my first day on R-comps. I took turn 3 too aggressively, the rear end came out instantly and I did a nice 360 and ended up on the grass inside turn 4's apex. Fortunately I was the only one on track (literally).

Lol there's never a shortage of wildlife there. Last time at Main a groundhog ran out in front of my car between turn 1 and 2 and ran back the way he came before I [almost] clipped him. I keep trying to come up with a caption for the little guy.

Edit: somebody better come to Summit with me!!!
