Dirty deeds, done dirt cheap!

Bag of Sand

Wheels of Thunder dawned bright and early for THIS reporter as over 75 twitchy, spastic, 3-point-turning Category 4 racers took to the field of combat high on the mesa above Golden in thankfully, no more than a light breeze. Things started innocently enough for Highroller as he prowled near the front, at one point holding down a strong 4th wheel before going on a wicked attack out the back heading out for lap 5. Carefully marshalling his reserves Highroller backed slowly around the track until he was once again in 4th place heading out for lap 11, well most of the field was heading out for lap 12 actually. Subregardless Highroller soldiered on getting into a good draft behind three fellow droppees and remarkably outsprinting his reverso-breakaway companions. "It's all about beating your friends! Or at least the shattered remnants of the chase group you happen to find yourself in after the peloton has vanished o'er the distant horizon." Might have missed out on 21st place unfortunately, but I'll bet a multiple of 21 is still possible!
