    quick weight reduction: jack/spare tire. use the facility before you go to the track lol.

    ive heard 16s are better than 17s on the track, but you have 16 street and 17 drag radials.. so idk about that one.

      Try both. The 17's will be heavier but the tires are better.

          Yeah you can take out your back seat. If you want to get technical, yes 17s would slow you down, but you have drag radials on them, so you should hook up better. If i'm not mistaken, rotational mass gets less important as speed increases...?
