Im sorry if i had post this topic twice ,because i dont know where to post it correctly (on competition forum or tech forum)

Lightening the flywheel
1300 D13b fully mod. with 4 speeds close ratio gear for drag racing ,and also extreme light weight civic body (around 700kg) . anybody knows the best weight for my flywheel, it was 4.5 kg now, I plan more to reduce the custom alumunium flywheel weight (now it was around 4 kg) but there is must be the limit point with the weight to have the best results.
Tell me about the commonly or best flywheel weight for me


Regards

Weapon R make it arround 4 kg. It still had lot cast protussion on the outer rim, and i plan to remove it lil bit, to get the mass as close to the center of rotation as possible. Off course i'll rebalance it after.
But im affraid it will loosen the ring gear for the starter and then fly away from the flywheel while it reving high

anyone ever try that "awfull" works, and still safe until now??
