Hp to weight ratio?
-or-
Torque to weight ratio?

I raced a vehicle the same mass as mine, he had 235 pounds of torque, but 170 Hp, while on the other hand, I had only 188 pounds of torque with 190 Hp and his vehicle smoked mine.

I can do 120 mph and he can only do 80. Thats the catch. Which comparision do I use to compare the power to weight ratio? Mine beat his for the first sec, then he swiftly passed me and kept going. We are both automatics.

Please don't go into gearing, we were in our 2-3 gears (on drive) and he is the quicker one. It had something to do with torque. Thanks.

I have a '96 sentra and am trying to remove the battery, but the nut on the positive terminal is stripped and seems almost to be fused to the bolt. I've already tried cleaning the terminals and oiling the nut and bolt, but the thing still won't turn. What do I do now?

...g? do you know how much you can trust hear-say? as a matter of fact, diesel engines were primarily to run out of vegetable oils, expensive and huge fields to grow unless in Brazil; costly hydrogen duhh to produce; need better batteries and better climate for solar;new oil fields to discover, don't forget that China wants SUVs and the same standard of living as in USA, hope we don't go to another war for remnants of petroleum...maybe for now the solution is to apply ALL of this concepts...and do your research...

Not an SUV, truck, or van but car. Preferably one that doesn't cost too much.

I'm talking ugly here! To boxy or too fat, too short or too tall, or just pain poor concept, poor vision, poor taste.

The Studebaker Lark looked liked a compressed MB, the Edsel looked like a vagina coming at you.

You get the idea. Have fun!

I know of a Mazda 626, that was ran off the side of the road and into a little bit of water, but the inside was not affected, just the motor. I recently tried to start the car, and all it did was click. And the battery was in good condition. I think the starter is bad. I really dont think that the water affected the motor, because there is not any water in the oil. The seller wants $200 for the car, it has a nice body, and very clean interior. Is this a good price? What could be the cause of the clicking? What do you think about the whole thing?
