I wasn't sure where it came from but was hoping it wasn't from the car. As the engine wound down and got quieter I could hear air coming out of the tire pretty fast. Come to find out there must have been a nail or screw in the tire that came loose at 150 mph.
I bet you almost had a heart attack.. Ouch!
