bwahhahaha......what?


Also like I now see someone else said, it probably will hurt your top speed but not even enough for you to notice. Who goes that fast anyway, or even has the need to? The benefits you get in traction in both straight line acceleration and cornering capabilities far exceed the drawbacks.
