i know this sounds lame but my grand dad told me when i was first
getting into mechanics, its like a fire cracker, the amount of gun
powder (horse pwr) in the expolsive, determines the size of
hole it makes in the ground (torque) and if you ever had a fire cracker
from mexico, theirs are smaller but can take off your hand, more
torque, less gun powder to make the hole (their dangerous)
but gear heads understand and can see how torque is the power
to lift and lanch a car, like the hole the fire cracker makes, if it
sounds dumb, i tried, but i understand the mathamatics of torque
from horse pwr.-my 2 cents :?
