Yeah he didn't say you can't do a burnout with 22's he just said there is a difference in the ability. The increase in weight of the rotational mass makes the vehicle some what slower. Just by switching from 20+ inch rims to lighter 16 or 17's many have seen improved times at the track not just on the dyno. Even if I don't agree with some of what has been said the logic is correct smaller lighter wheels many times equals a quicker vehicle.
Yeah i know. I got a set of 17s im going to put slicks on for the track. Was just saying for some trucks or cars the difference wont be as big
Burnouts have never been a problem for me, I have pretty much full bolt-ons, CAI, vette servo, shift kit, eaton posi, 4:10's, full exhaust, nelson tune, upgraded wires.... etc, I was just saying it makes a big difference with smaller rims and tiresQuote:

I was looking into those 140mph clusters, I was wondering if they would be accurate or not. I had my needle burried so I went to the gps and was at 142mph with the rpms at 5600.Quote:
