Never had any say Panda I <3 Floods Silver Donating Members 11,198 Member For: 13y 10m 9d Gender: Male Location: South West QLD Posted 31/05/12 06:32 AM Share Posted 31/05/12 06:32 AM I drink alcohol before I drive at the race track.. It makes me light headed.. So since my head weighs about 6kg normal.. I reckon the light headedness of alcohol would reduce my head weight to 4.8kg.. 2 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/80406-stripping-paint-off-wheels-and-performance-gains-noticed/page/5/#findComment-1246442 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shyfrd Turboless Donating Members 5,992 Member For: 14y 3m 14d Gender: Male Location: Geelong, Victoria Posted 31/05/12 06:34 AM Share Posted 31/05/12 06:34 AM Who's the chemistry nut here? What is better? Helium or nitrogen? I realise nitrogen already accounts for about 70-80% of normal air so mustn't make difference going 100% nitrogen. Helium has to be better. Way lighter too.Also going off worms post. Dish wheels, the actual dish would create drag with the wind coming into the wheels=no good. +1 for 17in standard rims.Great thread. Must put to use some of these ideas!
