I tried, but our freshmen lost enthusiasm about filing the blocks of aluminum I gave them into Andymark Performance Wheels after only a few hours! - Greg Woelki [more]

Re: pic: 662 gets a tube wrapped around the wheel

We were able still able to drive around and score and as far as I know we were not penalized. Our driver was more careful so we never wrapped a tube around the wheel this bad again, however we still killed a lot of tubes. One of the field personnel asked us at the end of Friday if we could try not to tear up so many tubes as they were concerned that they would run out of tubes. We double checked the frame and found no sharp edges, so we decided to add bumpers and this helped a lot.
