How much will adding 16 lb to my car affect ET/mph(rotating weight)
ok so my verbiage still is not right
sprung weight is a tire on suspension
un sprung weight is a lighter race seat so neither one is rotating weight.
Sprung weight is the body etc. of the car, the stuff above the springs.
Unsprung weight is the rearend, wheels and tires, a % of the front suspension.
Rotating is part of the crankshaft, flywheel, flexplate, converter, trans internals, driveshaft, gears, axles, brakes, wheels and tires. Weight after the gears has less effect than in front of the rearend.
Reciprocating is the pistons, rods, part of the crank, valves,part of the rockers, etc.
