Torque Curve

[CDK]

I know this is a little out of the norm but does anyone have a HP to Torque Graph for the 200 HP Works Rally Cars.I have been thru all my books and found some graphs for the Later models but I know they will be somewhat different based on the cam and heads.

It's not 200 HP but quite a bit of torque over a wide range. See Chris Dimmock's car specs;

Dave,
That was some flat torque curve! Once again thanks for the link.I know you have a disdain for games but I have been playing around with Rally Trophy.Someone built a Healey for it and I have been reworking the physics code,You can get into the game code and edit a lot of it,which I spend more time doing then playing the game its like a math puzzle.It is surprisingly intricate,I been trying to use real Healey data in both the engine and suspension and you can get it to drive like the real thing.(hey its been a pretty cold winter and at least I have some miles on a virtual Healey)I know I will never convince you but it often turns out to be some very good enginering exercises.

Disdain is too strong a word. More like it just doesnt turn me on much, especially if you can't bend the rules. Just my dislike of authority I guess.

Now a game that you can get into & juggle the rules is a different matter. Been doing that all of my life.
