        The wider tires should help you carry more speed through the corner,it's not likely you will notice any power loss coming out of the corner.

            I agree totally,see my reply to boport on the 95 mustang front hub post.then afterwards he just reassures everyone that my comments are true.just look at his profile it explains it all.bad thing is he seems to be fairly knowledgable on these mini stock cars,he just prefers to be an ass.the whole intent of this section of the forum is to help each other oiut with previous experiences instead of to ridicule.remeber there are no stupid questions, but there are stupid answers.

                        You almost have to try it and see what happens. The wider tire might get you through the corner better and if you carry more speed off the corner, the rpm may not drop at all.
                        I will drop down 1-2 inches in tire rollout so I can run the bottom of the track if the top gets dry slick.

                        Trial and error and take lots of notes.
                        Oval racing helps you unwind because you race counter clockwise.
