I was bumping in and my brakes quit releasing.
I couldn't tell. I knew it seemed like forever but when the red came on I died a little inside, lol. I beat him in the race the day before and gave him a freebie the next.
Anybody else done this before? Man, what a horrible way to lose.

What sucks is I have been drag racing for 12 years and have never done this. I've done a burnout in reverse by mistake once. Twice in a row. That was embarrasing....
