“Our car came to rest upside down, on the roof, with 4 Milestar Patagonia’s up in the air, stated Dave Wong, Team Milestar and Unlimited Class Competitor. Well, it’s not over until it’s over. We were able to overcome that setback and finish with the win! Thank you, Milestar, for all the support! We couldn’t do it without you!”
“The courses were tough this year, stated Braxton Cole, Team Milestar and ProMod Class Competitor. We ended up bending two wheels, but the tires were fine. The difference in size from Patagonia M/T-02s from 40 inch to 42 inch was crazy and made all the difference!”
