Dodge the cones. Watch out for guardrails. Stay on the track. Go faster than the other guys in your class. Represent with mad wagon power.

I managed to drop my time over 6 sec from my first run. And all 4 runs cone free. As soon as they post the results I'll like to it. I had a blast but I don't think my tires took to kind to it.
