Isn’t strange that almost every real world test that Grass Roots Motorsports does ends up contradicting the heavy wheel = slower idea? GRM volume 28, #4, June 2011 (19.6 lbs wheel is faster and makes more horsepower than a 15.9 lbs wheel.WTF!)

Just my 2 cents. Now Discuss...

Maybe a flywheel effect?
