Great looking wheels. Super light. Looks like High Plains. Which turn claimed you? The Esses (turn 13, 14)? That seems to be a popular one there. Are they running the short track now?

Yes, HPR. Running the North course. Unfortunately it was at the kink right after turn 3. I may have dropped a tire off which started the spin.

Wow these wheels look awesome for 18" rims! Can you post some pics from a side?

Weather is crummy here today, and I have to get that bead cleaned out. If I can get that done today I'll try to snap a pic for you.
