Re: Wheel rotational weight impact on performance
Damn I make a comment to a Friend in need and all of a sudden I get thrown under the bus. Where did the Miata comment come from.
Eric I vote for Roebling as well. Brians big hp will not be as big a factor there. Darkside will be the first weekend in May David |

Re: Wheel rotational weight impact on performance
Ya I know, sometimes children will be children. Homestead would be 13 to 14 hours for me. I could do Mid-Ohio for that kind of travel time. Thats a cool place.
I signed up for Roebling who else is going. (no Pomroys allowed) David |

Re: Wheel rotational weight impact on performance
Brian,
Roebling 1.45 CMP 1.45 RA 2.00 VIR 4.00 At Roebling hp mean nothing from entering turn 3 to exit turn 7. I almost agree with you skill, setup,hp |

Re: Wheel rotational weight impact on performance
Skill, setup, hp. I think I'm a little lacking in most of those. I can thumb wrestle like a mutha though. You pussy's are going down.
![]() Are you sure the Darkside allows more then one real racecar on the track at the same time? You can expect that you will need to follow at least 2 slow P cars from turn 2-7 every lap. They do have the bbq thing goin on. Wassup with all the horsepower upgrades?? Ok David, man pact here. No HP upgrades allowed. Head to head with the engine as delivered from PAD. I think I cab make up that .3 seconds at Roebling and you can make excuses for not coming to Sebring anymore.

Re: Wheel rotational weight impact on performance
I think it's more skillz, ballz, setup, hp.
I know some very good drivers, who can do all the right things, but just don't want to push the car as hard as they should, even though they can!
