Should be fine for 1S. The highest charger output would be around 30A x 4.2V = 126 watts. Adding some to run the charger itself (efficiency) probably puts the input power requirements somewhere in the 150 to 160 watt range.
Assuming the Pyramid is around 13.8 volts, that's less than 12 amps. While higher voltage is nice, it's hardly needed for your current application. Just be aware of the limitations if you do have larger batteries in the future, buddy wants to try it out, etc.
Also I believe the TP, like most of the big boy chargers, can be programmed to limit the power to the supply being used to prevent issues. I'd probably set it for maybe 20 amps or so max, or even a little less to be safe.
Of course as you mentioned it does need a boat trailer to drag it to the track.
