last time i went to the track with shitty tires was on my bike... and yeah sliding in my suit at 90mph after lowsiding might be very exciting but definately not the most fun of times luckily i was able to "surf" on my knee pucks til i slowed down enough to just stand up.. was very odd.. very lucky!
