As a former owner of a couple of LX hatches I wish they weighed 2800lbs. More like 3200+ verified on both my old 89 and 91 LX's on a scale at the drag strip. Only notch backs in the lightest trim (think ssp with crank windows) even remotely get close to sun 2900lbs.

Shelby said that in regards to the style of racing he was building for. His cars advantage came from its torque it made coming out of the corners.

Don’t forget Horsepower = Torque x RPM / 5,252……..rewards engines that can really rpm😎

Do people forget gear ratios also alter a lot of drivetrain characteristics as well as final drive?

My favorite F1 engine is the BMW Megatron. 1,500 horsepower from 1.5 liters. And I like how the block was the same as a run of the mill M10.

That's a thing in semis too btw, people say that they can pull so much weight because thejr engine have a lot of torque, that's not true, anything with the same HP as the truck engine is capeble of pulling the same load (with the right gearing)
HP is HP!

Glad to see so many people mentioning the gearing. We all remember shifting gears on a bicycle right? The same amount of pushing power with your legs is drastically changed by shifting gears. I would guess if that mustang had a better transmission/gear ratio it would perform better and use that torque to its advantage.

Instant torque is the reason even the slowest electric car is a blast to drive around town even if it's not going to win any races

The issue is torque has no meaning outside of static situations. Power and weight is the only units you need to know to calculate acceleration.
So called torquey engines provide power at lower rpms. Power is literally energy per unit of time. To accelerate a car is to put energy into the system (kinetic energy) power is all you need to know.
I have very high torque diesels and low torque petrols. From low revs my diesel will shoot away and you don’t need to drop a gear to pull but when you are flooring it at high revs is they are the same.

Horsepower is torque sustained through rpm. The smaller F20 out torques the larger v8 up in higher rpms, so while it doesn't produce as much peak torque, it still averages a ton.
|
Torque is what gets you out of the hole, and in drag racing a lot of the times the quicker one out of the hole would win the race. So if the Mustangs beating the S2000 it's because of the torque got it out of the hole quicker

I said torque was a factor when under a load. That's the most simple way I can understand it myself. The Fox body, weighing the same, similar HP but with more torque, gets gapped by the car with more HP. BUT.... Add 100-200 pounds towards the rear of the Fox body, a different outcome will unfold.

If a fox body was geared the same as the Honda it would be allot faster, the s2000 has very close short ratio gearing and the mustang either has a lazy auto or a clunky tall geared 5 speed

Notice the 940 horsepower and 350 ft lb of torque that is so I can be easily modulated in the corners maintain speed without breaking or having to use the computer to put a bandaid on it /Tcs

I understand that HP = Torque * RPM / 5252.
But a big displacement normally aspirated V8 is just such a sweet engine configuration, there's a reason they're so popular in the USA 🇺🇸 alas not so much here 🇬🇧
As someone who's grown up on high revving small displacement engines such as Porsche's etc. Having a large displacement V8 is so much more usable in the real world and I'm not looking back.
Turbos change everything. That's a different topic entirely, but I'm an NA kinda

Engineering Explained has a great video that goes over this, but the gist of it is gearing. For the purpose of a car, Torque = (Linear force) * (Radius of gear) * sin(angle between the force and and object force is applied to). Since the shaft of the gear is in the center, the angle is always 90 degrees, so sin = 1. Therefore, the torque is dependent on the HP of the car, and the gear its in. More HP is better, because if you want to accelerate faster, you just need to change the other variable of the torque equation, the gear (ie. downshift)

Randy Pobst said it best "torque is what you feel horsepower is how long you feel it."
