That should be in Webster's dictionary as the description for a code brown moment. Amazingly he really didn't seem to get all that worked up, though his eyes are pretty clear when he lifts the visor. Awesome!

I think that happened on his burnout, as there are people walking around the car.
Not that it's any less of a code brown...

Crazy

On Memorial weekend @ MidOh BMW race I was lining up for practice and going through my check list which includes giving the steering wheel a tug.. When I did it came off in my hand.. I was moving about 10mph... It was jammed and would partially attached until I reattached it.. Still I had visions of it coming off in my hand that entire session.

Along the same theme, but at a track where you really need a wheel.
