    I can afford to 2 lbs per wheel, How much do YOU weigh? Whats your C's race trim weight without you in it? I think you'll find you out weigh me by at least 4 lbs.....................................................:bye:

    Oh sure.....call me fat!!!!

    (I'm sure you're correct though. I'm not big, but not small either. I'm in that range where I can't claim my weight as a racing handicap, but on the other hand it's doing me no favors. I'm probably 50 pounds heavier than the smallest guys out there)

    Keep in mind that the smaller Diameter DR will cause the High HP whips to short shift into 4th gear about 100-120 feet BEFORE the trap.

    we run 275/40 r17's. 25.7" tall. We are crossing the traps in 4th gear at about 5,000rpm I beleive, so we are in the lower rpms, but our mph is 122 so I dont think it is hurting us too much.


    It looks like we have a real race to the 1.4's.

    Couldn't we just raise the rev limiter and shift points to a appropriate lvl to aleviate that ?
