Something really messed up
Well this is what happened ran the quarter mile and well when I tried to turn afterwards I heard a metallic ping, I check everything out and it seems fine so I keep driving. I try to turn again and the steering wheel fights me a lil, well I go to a parking lot and lock the wheel all the way left and the car drives fine but then it happens, the front wheels make a popping sound and the wheels kind of lock up, feels like the front tires arent moving but only happens at full lock. Further investigate and when you break the wheel in full lock either way the rpms at idle go down about 300. What do ya'll think? the metallic pinging seems to come from the driverside front.

I'm having a hard time reading/ understanding what happened...
but if it is just one wheel doing it, it is probably the cv joint on that axle.
Do you do your own work? if not, it doesn't much matter if you have to bring it to the dealer. Don't think you'll luck out with any warranty claim, since it happened while racing.
let us know how it works out.
