Thanks for sharing your dragy numbers and your settings/DA. Always interested in seeing performance data even from dragy, but only formal slips from sanctioned tracks are being entered into the spreadsheets.  |
Yes, at least in theory, wider tires should help with the initial traction. But they also produce higher rolling resistance throughout the run, thus potentially negating the initial advantage.
