Generally, lighter flywheels pick up RPM faster, which may not be want you
want in LSR racing. Momentum is a good thing over the longer haul, and quick
jumps in RPM are sometimes associated with wheelspin. I haven't been to
Maxton , so I don't know how this would shake out there. Lighter flywheels
might be great for quick acceleration on a good paved surface. Salt and dirt
don't seem to like the power applied quite that way. For "west of the
Mississippi" LSR use, I vote for heavier.

Our Team has been discussing flywheel weight as it applies to top
speeds. Some say that heavier is better, some lighter. What's the
consensus amongst the Land Speed Digest?
