my experience is, if you go too light it hinders your ability to get out the hole.

Sorry man. Seriously, that went right over my head. Could you explain a little?

Re: (TheKingPin)
My buddy has a 2000gsr w/ drag kit, 9lb flywheel, lsd.
even with the lsd it is nearly impossible to get a decent consistent launch, mostly because you would have to "over shoot" the rev target so that you could try to get a good launch, which would result in spinning your *** off. If you tried to launch at a lower rpm it would just bog off the line. I firmly believe its due to the loss of rotational mass inertia of the lightened flywheel.
on my set up, i have a middle of the line 12lbs and it launches and revs just beautifully.

I can launch perfectly. I don't know what kind of clutch he has - i'm using a 6 puck ceramic clutch. It launches great. You just have to get the feel for it.

Re: Flywheel Question (JustBlaze.)
Nothing wrong with the B16 flywheel.Put the money towards some drag radials or slicks.Those will make an improvement without debate.
