I hope you had a great race. A 180 usually makes you get out of the saddle and go really hard. The fishtail happens on dry and wet but you notice it lots more when it's wet. You have to make sure your bike is on plane before you get out of the saddle and really put on the gas. Also wet roads are good for learning proper cornering..catch a peddle when it's wet or have your feet at 3 and 9 instead of your outside foot down will result in a silly fall. The number thing is pretty normal, they will tell you it's on the wrong side or upside down from time to time just to watch your nerves frazzle. Make sure to keep a cheap bar end plug or 2 in your car or equipment bag..officials love to find little sh-it.
