Doesn't torque max out -- and equal horsepower -- at 5,250 (5,750???) RPM for all motors? If so, then beyond that RPM the motor only gains HP and must rely on said HP to keep accelerating? I'd think

My understanding is that torque and Horsepower cross at 5252 RPM in all motors (if they will spin that high). I think HP = Torque x RPM / 5252. Therefore at 5252 RPM they are equal. Most engines we

Power (in horsepower) and Torque (in foot pounds) are always equal at 5,252 RPM because of the English units conversion: P = 2 * pi * n * T / 33000 Where n is RPM and T is torque. Since 33000 / (2 *

I'll give you a gold star if you can say where the 33000 comes from without looking it up. So, by your logic I will accelerate faster with 500ft-lbs at 5000rpm than 500ft-lbs at 1500rpm? -Andy Do Yo

Well said. This is definitely true, for example, if you look at many of Spoon's cars, they make identical peak horsepower to their stock counter parts... but they have much more area under the torque

Unfortunately, the peak torque figure is also "little".:-) I liked the one magazine test where they did full throttle acceleration with an S2000 and shifted at 5500rpm (instead of 9000), resulting i

On an autocross shifting gears slows you down so you want a flat torque curve that allows you to use a single gear over a wide range of speeds. But it doesn't matter how _much_ torque you have, it's

Actually, I was looking for 1hp = 550 ft-lbf/s and 60 sec/min to get the 33,000, with the real question being where the 550 came from (typical English unit garbage). Two means to the same end. I just

Kinda long but it's the shortest explanation I can give. . . I remember. The 550 is actually 552.59. 1 horsepower is 746 watts, 1 lb. ft. is 1.35 n*m. 746 / 1.35 = 552.59. and This is WRONG (though i

So how come it is 746 watts per hp? You're still missing the question. Unit conversions are fine and dandy, but I was wondering how 550 ft-lbf/s became 1hp. *snipping extreme Clements verbiage* Mike

So, you're saying that each car, both 500rpm short of redline with a perfectly flat torque curve, one at 13mph and one at 28 mph will have the same acceleration potential, with identical drivetrains?

Right. That's why power determines acceleration, while Torque and RPM are equal contributors each of which in itself means nothing. Now let me take Katie's advice and provide a simple example. Imagin
