You aren't accelerating it from point A along vector V, so it's not it's weight that matters. You are accelerating it from a slow spinning speed to; /html/mgs/1997-09/msg01531.html (8,519 bytes)

I am unsure of the amount and if it's worth it, but it seems logical that if you can rev the engine faster against it's own weight while in neutral, i; /html/mgs/1997-09/msg01540.html (8,206 bytes)
