vibrio - you are a c0ck SMB




So because I am right your reduced to name calling.

yeh i know ultimately im worse off all the time with the 17's on, but im saying that the effect is lessened further up the range.

i.e. the drag on the driveshafts won't be the same from a standing start as it is when the car is already moving





your wheels are bigger and heavier than stnadard one. this increases rotating mass and increases your gearing. this means that the effect is felt all the way through the gears not just 1+2. now whos the cock eh

i know that its all the way thru the gears, wot im saying is that its not the same amount of energy needed to turn the wheels from a standing start as it will be the turn the wheels when theyre already on the move as they already have momentum, but ultimately there still is a drag there yesh, just not as much

15's are going on for a trial perion soon anyways so i'll let u know the verdict

just give up with the once on the move crap. bigger wheels = increased gearing

How does it need less energy to accelerate the wheels at higher speeds?

The different from 5-10 revolutions per second is what 5 revolutions increase...

The difference from 0-5 is 5 as well.. it will take the same ammount of energy to increase from 5-10 as it took to get them from 0- 5...

I'm not. there was not even a hint of an ' in the GTS to make GT'S. anyway his opinion is of no concern to me.

yes I believe this is what I call BS. I do not sit on the computer all day. I actually do work. the computer may be on with CS up but I am not constantly on it. I also do a lot of work on the computer so I do every so often click back to see whats going on.



also I ain't 29 and the clio is shite apart from handling
