HP is derive from torque.

I advice you to read the magazine and what I have up top.

There is a bigger picture to this thing that what you may realise.

Just remember that there uses these things in racing. Eg, like in JGTC, Nascar and so on.

I'm extremely well versed in physics, but not in cars at this moment. How would adding torque affect my driving as opossed to adding horse?

Torque gets you moving while hp keeps it there. I think that is correct.

HP is what gives you those high number in km/h

Check for instant trucks. There have alot of torque, but extremely low HP.

There can pull, but cannot travel over 100mph.

Check the 1600cc cars. alot of hp, but cannot move properply without stalling.

I always thought of it like this. Torque is low end power, Hp is high end power.

The easiest way to explain torque, is that a car with low torque will struggle when going up a hill or towing a speedboat - No matter how much horsepower it has.

tractors have hella torque smile.gif


Also I'm fairly sure that higher torque would affect your cornering slightly thinking back on my physics days. Although because I can't remember all the equations I can't prove it to you!
