    i want to carbon fiber my cock. The weight savings would be well worth the pain. My legs kill me when I have to walk a lot during the day.

    Race cars on street courses and ovals with walls directly next to the track.

    CF would flex a lot more before breaking then aluminum would before bending. Pot holes would be fine, but walls are a different story. But who the hell runs their car into walls on a regular basis?

    I'd say no to hitting a wall. I do know Dymag is popular on the newer 996+ P-cars. I've seen two cars with the wheels, one a turbo-vert, and one a gt2. Not sure on the specific year. Both are streetcars.

    One of my friends is working on a Carbon/Mag 13in wheel for his senior project.

    Right they are. The entire barrel is CF. :) There are some companies making the centers out of CF as well.

    Looks like I stand corrected...per their website the shell is all CF.

    If CF wheels were as good as people might think they might be, we'd be seeing them on F1 cars. As far as I know, they're still using a mag wheel.

    I bet that wheel has a coating of CF.
