      Sprung vs unsprung weight

      I know iv'e read that un-sprung weight is a big deal when it comes to auto-x. Aluminum carriers, Lighter wheel/tire combos, lighter brakes etc....

      How big of a deal is this? Is un-sprung weight more important to eliminate than sprung weight? Are the un-sprung lightweight parts something that's worth the premium paid for the casual auto x/street driver guy? Is reducing un-sprung weight a race only concern? School me. Let's discuss.
