Racing Beat Flywheel upgrade

When I first started using my light steel flywheel, I wasn't used to the revs dropping that fast. That messed with my shifting at first so now I rev a bit higher to compensate. It would also pick up faster and rev higher at cold start. Other than that, the feel of the car is still the same.

The reason why people stall more with the lighter wheel is the lack of momentum compared to the stock wheel. They also likely run grippier clutches and that won't help.
