Ha! That's the exact race I took my first ever last-lap flyer in! All I wanted to do was be in the top 20 or 30 or whatever so I could race in the finals...

And then the entire field went by with 1/4 lap to go as I completely blew up.

I've only tried a last lap flyer twice more after that in 200+ races. Suffice to say it is not an effective strategy for me!
