More precisely the setup which is commonly known as the "West Coast Drive" was first seen in 2002, used by Team 60.



This was the four wheeled incarnation of the West Coast Drive.

The 6 wheel version debuted in official competition in the 2004 season, in the twins of Team 60 & 254, as well as Team 22.
