Throw me in for a Later Crater.

Getting 32 entries might be tough. 


I went with arctic dazzle camo for my Later Crater!

Seems you're getting plenty of Later Craters, so I'll do a Dune Crusher. Team: Sloppy Bear Racing, Driver: Grey.

Hey Portillo, I was wondering if it was ok to use the new (for most of us) silicone/oil lube. It doesn't drip once it's dry. Thanks.


We Have Two Surpise Entries For The Event... And Both Are From Portillo Entertainment Racing...
