That's not how it works... I'm sorry to say. You sound kinda funny explaining it that way. Remember...the Civic Si (99+) has an 8K redline... with vtec kick at about 6500 rpm. Per shift, he'll drop back to about 6000 rpm...and still be in his highest power range, and near his highest torque range, at about 6500 something rpms. As far as racing goes, IMO... if it's a drag race...torque definately will help on the launch, but Horsepower is what wins the top-end pull. That's why you don't see tractors drag racing Indy cars... |
