alrighty... i got 18 inch wheels and some low profile tires on her but what i am asking is when i "try to race" ill dump the clutch and my car will revv up but it takes time to go anywhere not a lot but still you can deffinatly feel it. like the engine has to push a lot harder to ge the car going and i loose almost every race now anyways... i dont even bother racing anymore
 cry cry thats how bad it is... i got perelli p7000 supersport tires on the rims all i am asking is if it is bad for my clutch or tranny???
