Torque Junkie
Nice. Kinda wild that the old "Power V Torque" argument is still going on even now. hahaha

Torque is generally also measured at the flywheel (if measured at the drive wheels then xmission losses are added to give a flywheel figure).
Measuring a true flywheel figure would mean taking the engine out of the car.
Which is a lot of mucking about for a quick dyno run.

On any rolling road the power figures are originally from the flywheel then mechanical drag is then worked on the cool down.
And what about engines that don't rev up to 5252 RPM? And what is 5252? What is 7024?
I see lot of people can find Wikipedia. Like HDI fun said, it's a ratio not an unit. I don't doubt in equations posted here, just saying it is not obligatory that engine torque must drop above 5252 RPM, or engine torque MUST be hold its value untill 5252 RPM.
I know my english is not at best, but I'm sure it it understandable enough for those willing to read.
Say mr Watt hello for me when you see him!
For example, in which point crosses F1 engine? In which point crosses WRC engine?
WRC got about 300 HP and (reportedly) about 600-700 Nm of torque. Let's say it is 600 Nm ('tough i believe it is more). Crossed at 5252 RPM that brings us to about 450 HP (I rounded the number). Is it way more then 300 HP?
For the end, I think that is enough to make an point here and after this point thread will become "windmill chase case".
Like said before, I'm to old for chasing windmills, and to young to let common sence go away from me.
Roger and out!
