I decided to put an LFS car on the Dyno...

[Roadie]

Here is what it put down.

:D

[rainspecialist]

uhh wat car?

:really:

[dawesdust_12]

He's being cheeky, he's saying that LFS cars have no Torque curve, just a torque spike.

didnt understand...

[dawesdust_12]

Roadie, I didn't mean it in an angry way, I was just making it easy for people to understand.

Oh no, I didn't take any offense lol.

[spoop]

the torque and hp are equal at 5252rpm, it must be real

[JeffR]

I thought that graph was the tire grip curve for the LX6.

[lococost]

HP=Cst*RPM*torque, where Cst is a know constant, so you're talking absolute rubbish Rodie.

[Bob Smith]

And there was me thinking somebody had got the updated torque curve plots for all cars in patch Y and saved me the bother.... guess not.

I was going to do it, but then I realised I didn't have a clue what a torque curve plot was. So I baked you a cookie. But I eated it.

[tristancliffe]

He vaguely got the peak in the right place though, using the tangent rule

[J.B.]

Don't get it.

[JamesF1]

And you never will (http://bash.org/?262353).

dont discuss physics with him
(Roadh0g) seriously... who uses the metric system on the internets
(Roadh0g) 90% of the people have no clue what you are saying :P

:D

How did You put LFS on dyno? :really: Whad does it mean? That LFS doesn't have proper torque curves? O.o

sarcasm buddy... just like this thread.:thumb:

but seriously, look at the uf1... it has a 1 liter powered by 4 hamsters and makes like 90ft/lbs at 3000rpms.. more torque than hp... UF1 = diesel

lol... so there was something wrong about this post :P. Dammit :D

[tristancliffe]

Maybe it's just got a long stroke? There doesn't appear to be much wrong with the torque curves in LFS really. Perhaps one or two are a smidgen peakier than they ought to be, but hardly a major thing (when we all race equal cars).

[Hallen]

My BMW 323i inline 6 cylinder has 170hp and 181ft/lbs of torque and I guarantee you it is not a diesel.

I have been meaning to ask this before:

Bob, how do you come up with the torque curves for LFS cars? You can't do it with just the peak stated values can you?

[Bob Smith]

No, I use RAF exports of the longitudinal forces from a carefully crafted setup, accelerating in a high gear, then apply corrections to try and counteract what I think is being summed, and try and take slip ratio off that (or at least I will when I get around to trying it again).

[ACCAkut]

There are torque curves for the LFS cars? Where can i find them? (even if they are a bit outdated)

[Gizz]

:jawdrop: you mean to say there is now crystal or wands involved in your work after all???? and i thought you were............ magic, i always pictured you in a star clad hat and a long black robe.... oohh well...

bobs human everyone, nothing to see here.....

you have just lost a lot of friends bOb :D

Not at 3k rpm's

[Hallen]

Not at 3k rpm's
No, at 5500rpm for peak hp if you want to be exact.
The point is, torque higher than hp does not = diesel, nor does a low reving engine.

I know that.. But the fact that its a 1 liter... lol

lol, yeah, you sure don't see many 1 liter cars here in the US, do you? You see plenty on motorcycles though :D
I guess that small of an engine moving that much weight (relatively speaking) would force you into a high torque at low rev engine. Otherwise, you would be tac'ing out just to get the car moving.

Yeah, like only the ENTIRE scientific community.

Sounds good... but you lost me at 'No' :scratchch:shrug:

im amazed no one commented on my awesome mspaint dyno graph?
