Default The wheel gods were with us at Road Atlanta.

This happend at the very start of the race when Jeff Altenburg put his front left wheel into Chips right rear. The bead stayed all race long on a very fast track like Road Atlanta...

Forged Volks really are very good, see attached pics for evidence:^)
