You are going to need all your focus to keep it straight on that tiny tire.

Record: 5.36 @131.96 MPH 1/8th

Lets hope they dont make the trek out here any time soon. At least not till you guys have a chance to get the combos sorted out. Sounds like a fun class. Lets hope the guys with deep pockets dont feel like trophy hunting like they do in every other class and ruin it for the regular guys like most of you on this site.
