I was participating in a high performance driving education (hpde) event and was driving my car going approximately 50 MPH on the virginia international raceway (vir) on tuesday afternoon, june 27, 2017, when it seemed to loose acceleration. I drove further on the track and still did not have normal acceleration and I saw blue smoke coming out the exhaust so I exited the track and when I got in the engine stopped.
