hehe, no its blue painters tape with layers of dirt over it

Atilla, the surface isnt really sandy. Its a lakebed, so its dried mud. When you launch it is almost like launching on pavement. But yes, when you do turns you slide through them, but even street tires get enough grip to control it.

I did This was the first event I have done in a very long time, and before that I had only ran a couple with a stock Corolla. While I was doing my runs I wasnt paying attention to my times, and wasnt expecting to place, so when they kept getting closer to calling out first place and my name hadnt been said, I thought they forgot about me
