no... lol just no

If you were to take another car that was lighter it would be quicker off the line, but it would also be equally quicker from a roll. what you're sayin doesnt follow the rules of basic physics. Newton would not be happy with your assumptions

you obviously failed physics, because from a roll a heavier car already has more forward momentum. two objects in motion, moving at a constant speed, the heavier one is going to have more forward momentuim. you dont know what your talking about.
No actually i had an A in physics and i'm in college now ; )

a heavier car has more inertia and therefore requires more power to move it, whether it be from a roll or from a stop, it doesn't matter. a lighter car requires less power to achieve the same acceleration from a stop and equally less power to do the same when from a roll. This isn't complex stuff here

The foreward motion thing makes sense though...cause heavier card do better from a roll
