Question Pop Quiz!!!

Alright, Honda Fans!! Here is a pop quiz for you. Whoever gets it first wins.........tada! Absolutely nothing! Well, actually you can claim the title for Engine Trivia Master, or whatever... if you want.

Q: How do you convert horsepower into torque? Hint: it's a formula.

If you have any dignity and honesty, you won't look it up on the 'net before answering...

Good luck!

I am probably not remembering this correctly but I think

Torque = 5250/rpm

nope... i know for sure thats not right. but if I remember correctly i think:

HP x 5252 / RPM = TQ

hmm... i think i might have screwed up someplace there. not sure.

Your prize...

Hey, sorry I couldn't provide the winner with the prize... I apologize for my cheapness. I just wanted to see how much (or how little) some guys actually know about engines, power, and torque. Most guys I know don't even know the difference between HP and torque. And some guys just think that having lots of HP will make them go fast, and that's not necessarily true, if you don't know how to drive your car the right way. For those of you who didn't know the answer, I'm glad that now you do. And for those of you who already knew it... sorry, but Mr. Fuggi beat you to the grand prize!!! haha
