Monday is gonna be NICE....

best guess is about 40-45lbs more unsprung weight...just where you need it least. I have 2 shots at 12s. RE11s are almost 1 inch shorter (increasing effective gearing) and/or no more spinning on 1-2 and 2-3 upshifts with wider/stickier rubber, if that don't work, little brother weighs 70lbs less than me. lmfao
Been a fan of Road Atlanta for a long time and gonna do my best to make some laps there. Watching videos (and Forza...guilty pleasure) I can see where the mistakes are most common but still, this is my only car and I don't need to pancake her. (Saw an M3 last summer with the passenger side CRUSHED limping up I-85. DON'T want any of that)

wheel sizes and tire sizes? They are RE-11's so if they are over 285 its overkill.....unless your FI but if you are aiming for 12's im assuming you arent.

265/305 and I was sure they were overkill but should look good. Last drag day (first run after uprev...dyno indicated 313 rwhp and 265+tq from about 2200 rpm almost to redline) was on 1/8th mile BUT I picked up over 3/10ths and 3mph. with the stockers, that SHOULD have netted me a sub 13 1/4th mile run, however, I turned up the shift indicator by 200 rpm which resulted in SPIN on the 1-2 and a solid chirp on the 2-3 shifts (automatic trans) SOOO with the net GAIN in traction but the expected net LOSSES for the additional unsprung weight, I am in the dark as to what I should expect. I WAS looking at FI but after researching the subject, I'm not gonna risk damaging the trans. Besides, I am reminded that my pockets are nowhere near as deep as they need to be AND there is ALWAYS someone faster/richer so really, whats the point? Additionally, a net of 100-200 rwhp for the investment, I could buy a used C6 Z06, Viper or Porsche and still be faster. Tks anyway.
305 mm...thats like 12 inches of rubber....gonna make my condoms jealous for sure....lmfao

Just read the local car ads....2010 supercharged CTS-V 46k
