There's no magical number that makes things ok for street, or bad for street 
use.  Mostly it's the driver.  If you can handle an engine that's a bit more 
easily stalled, requiring you to slightly rev it higher and slip the clutch 
just a touch longer, you'll be fine with a light flywheel.  If you can't do 
that, then you may not want a light flywheel.
