Yup, that could've been me, exiting turn 5 at UMC West, haha.

I've uploaded the lap that I was on when it happened. You can't see the smoke behind me, but you can get an idea of what happened RIGHT BEFORE I noticed the bomb, lost power, saw the cel, then coasted off the track.

At :35 seconds we enter the FASTEST part of the track, where I was grabbing 4th for a moment. (This is the first Full Lap of the session, so we're a little bunched-up.) At about :44 we're braking for the SLOWEST part of the track: a long, double-apex Left-hander. So as I was braking I went back to 2nd, added the throttle when I could see the exit and .... POOF...... blue cloud.
