During our testing of the car with the new 4 Way race suspension the wastegate clamp failed causing the Garrett wastegate and the dump pipe to fall off the car and roll onto the dry grass out the track setting the grass on fire.
Not knowing what had fallen off and not knowing there was a fire out on the far away sectiin of the track, I took the pickup out in track to find what ever had fallen off yhe car so I could bring it back to the mechanics at the pit.
When arriving at the scene, we realized there was a fire on track and we tried to put it out but when the failed we had to get reinforcements from the pit to help put out the fire which by then has spread to al.ost a 300 m2 area.
