The second time out, the car ran a 9.10 at 161 with a terrible 1.7 60' and getting in and out of it. On the second pass of the day, I sheared the crank key. All in all, it shows that the car would probably put down some good numbers on the welds. Just the difference in rotational mass is huge. I like the way it looks on the welds, but it does take away from some of the fun "surprise" factor of the 17s.
