Colleasure's car did a "spin and win" maneuver just past the finish line, possibly tagging
the wall and leaving a trail of fluid behind the car. The leak appeared to precede the spin and
he was able to recover and driver off the top end, so the car was not badly damaged and he may
be able to return. Hollis Colleasure's MOV: 0.0066 seconds (approximately 18 inches).
