i forgive you the detroit area doesnt have any good schools and the air quality effects brain cells over there, your comments are proof to that.
Xing Xing - I live in California so I am in the same polluted air as you with the same crappy schools. You forget one minor issue with your test, you're doing it in the air. There is no weight / resistance on the car. That's like saying a 50hp motor will rev in neutral to 5,000 rpm just as fast as a 500HP car, so they will both be equally as fast. Put them in drive and check your 0-60 mph times. By your logic, they would be the same. I have used Speedtech's ceramic bearings (Yokomo) and the car rolls farther off throttle than with the regular bearings. That's good enough for me.
