Local Teen driver gets pulled over at 142
SixVi6-Camaro Wrote:you are adding varriables to my example.. I said 2 IDENTICAL cars with the same exact gearing. the only difference is the engines. A 50 hp motor won't have the power to get to the same top speed as a 500hp. as speed increases the power required increases exponentially to work against the atmospheric drag.

Lets try another example.. 2 IDENTICAL 1/8 buggies.. 1 speed.. same gearing lets say 18/46 with unlimited space to run but one has a .15 and the other has a .28. the .15 will never be able to reach the same speed as a .28 because the .15 will not have the power to work against the atmospheric drag, parasitic drag form the driveline itself.

John I think there was some sarcasm that both you and I are missing out on in this thread. At least I HOPE so, other wise I wonder about the education system at times.
