    Slightly off topic, I scraped the front splitter at T6 and corkscrew of Laguna Seca when I was too close to the apex. The aspect ratio of my tires is 30 though.

  5. Smoking brakes [Update: AC Belt Failure]

Seems the AC clutch was also gone. So my assumption is that somehow the clutch failure caused seize and...
