I think theory & reality part company when talking acceleration, The theory says lose weight & shorten gearing, but I prefer to add ‘ within available grip’.
Have stripped mine & use 15” wheels & it went nowhere fast only lots of wheelspin.
Add interior, spare wheel, full tank of Petrol & 19” & 0-100 6.8 so much for theory.
Power & gearing all that counts on Topspeed + good brakes & Big Balls.
