I don't have one but, no it won't. At least not without a good amount of mods. Ehroof has done it. I'm sure he'll post something for you.

With a little bit of modding, porting and changing of gears, you can!

nahh even with all the mods and gear changing, it wont pop a wheely just by hitting the gas. It will wheely bouncing off a jump. Atleast thats what i think. If you got a .18 OS that might change it

In the volcano under the transmission field this is what is written "Gear reduction center transmission with dual disk slipper" Does that mean 1 gear?
