Racecars are confronted with a wide variety of issues that can affect performance. It is commonly understood that weight is the enemy in race vehicles. In theory, the heavier the car is the slower it will go. Heavier vehicles experience a reduction in overall speed caused by increased friction with the ground. Acceleration and deceleration is also affected. By simply swapping out the stock nuts, a significant savings in weight over the entire vehicle is attainable. In fact, when comparing the lightweight MIP set of 26 nuts to the heavier stock sets, the saved weight is around 9.344 grams (4.990 grams aluminum vs. 14.334 grams steel). Yes, the functional benefits such as protecting your vehicle from corrosive rust are noteworthy, but the new silver-toned MIP Pro4mance Aluminum Nuts will also turn heads at the track. Dominate the podium and look good doing it with MIP.
