Dunno mate. He is running Superchips the same as my Ed30 did and they are more conservative than Revo.

Not sure on that Physics Law myself unless you are approaching the speed of light.  :surprised:

Wind resistance increases with the square of the velocity but I didn't think that mass changes. :confused:

Yep the faster you move the more energy you put into something more mass accumulates

I don't think it's a significant amount Micky unless, like I said, you are approaching the speed of light.

I have a headache now from reading this as it's been a while.  :innocent: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass-energy_equivalence

100lb man traveling at 0.6 the speed of light weight 125lb.... at 'car speeds' its going to be minute!

So a car with mass of  2900lb... will weigh 2901lb @100mph!


The above might well be complete codswallop.... my head aches already!
