Even old green f6 drivers look goof enough to pull 21y/o's. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/80406-stripping-paint-off-wheels-and-performance-gains-noticed/page/9/#findComment-1246532 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously it would pay to premark the surface area with some form of constant pattern and then apply pressure from the hammer to the said surface. By applying an uneven pattern could cause issues due to uneven aerodynamic advantages from one area to another which may cause small issues such as pulling to one side to catastrophic issues like the car trying to turn itself inside out from one side being more dimpled and the other side. 3 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/80406-stripping-paint-off-wheels-and-performance-gains-noticed/page/9/#findComment-1246537 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henz Tampon inserted, Auto Acquired, next purchase a new handbag Donating Members 9,946 Member For: 17y 3m 2d Gender: Male Location: Vic Posted 31/05/12 08:26 AM Share Posted 31/05/12 08:26 AM I have done some research. And keeping the gearbox will hence make the vehicle an astoundingly confusing 8% heavier on a hot day. But this performance will be adversely affected in the situation known as decline or descent, where the amount of weight will add inertia. If weight = 9x1 and inertia is O vs O time the amount of linear descent. we end up with this. ======9Oo 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/80406-stripping-paint-off-wheels-and-performance-gains-noticed/page/9/#findComment-1246541 Share on other sites More sharing options...
