Nick.H @ the track
I use light weight 19lb wheels with 245 17s upfront and a 275 17s DR in the back. It may not look as nice as fancy 18s but I'll pass that up for weight savings any day.
Good luck with your run against the 5.0. You have a real good chance just don't spin the tires.
Remove the front sway bar for the race. It'll save 12-15 pounds off the front and allow better weight transfer to the rear. Might help on the launch enough to take the win with it being an 1/8 track.
