I've always wondered...but never bothered to ask... what exactly is torque? like I know Tork...I know the word, and I understand like... it like....yeah what exactly is it? ha I'm an idiot.

its the rotation force like on the crankshaft to the pistons

[Derk_eliso]

so if it's 155lbs that's the force of the crankshaft going to the pistons... hmm... that's like throwing one of me at the pistons.... lol

Here is how i like to remember everything...

Under steer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car--over steer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car. Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall; torque is how far you take the wall with you.
