Buy a shorty antenna. That'll lighten your car up therefore making it feel like you just free'd up an extra 25 horses [8D]

His tires were probably inflated better than yours, hence why you would roll faster

I would have to say your wider tires played a part but other things such could also be a factor. I notice a huge difference going from my 265s on my 18s to the stocker 15s.
