Steve,
First off I think I forgot to mention in my first post that YOU ARE THE MAN for coming in here and answering like EVERY post. Seriously dude you rock! Thanks. As to my first post I didn't quite understand your answer. Are you saying that I have a better mechanical advantage turning larger tires with the exact same rollout? I'm not the only one to notice this, at our track any way. We see it in the way we drive as well. If we try to roll corners and carry speed the car comes out sluggish and takes longer to wind out than if we drive point and shoot. Like I said it's really weird and completely contrary to what we know of brushed and quite frankly physics.

Thanks again.
