What was a quiet addition to the SKUSA SuperNationals class roster quickly became a focal point for the silver anniversary edition.

Low numbers caused the category to be dropped for the 2021 season and the class has truly not yet reached the national level until this year’s SuperNationals. The class has seen growth throug
