In the process i crossed in front of my opponent and he had to do some quick driving through my oil to avoid hitting me and the wall. A diaper would not have saved my engine but it most likely would have prevented a very unwelcome ride into the wall and almost causing damage or injury to my opponent. My theory is that no matter how good your engine or your engine builder is, they didn't build the parts, if a rod cap breaks you are going for a ride. I say this as I would never want any harm to come to any racer. As far as a short clean up time, mine was only 2 hours that could have been avoided for a mere $300 diaper.
Have a fun season.

Since you're incident have you bought and installed a diaper?As of now they are OPTIONAL.And that's the way it should stay.
