The effect would be your still moving 1000 pounds extra down the track. Forget the effects for a moment of moving the thousand lbs. and concentrate on getting from Point A to point B with the quickest ET. More effect would also be putting more strain on your parts, 1000 LBS worth. The question is pretty vague.
