How much hp are you making?


Recommended Posts

dont you get it? it dont matter what track or type of racing you do.. its skill over HP and TQ. HP and TQ help but what wins the race is the driver

bike you just cant accelerate.. you can flip that bike over

Whats your point you are arguing? Is it for me? Sure seems like that ...Electrics are always easier to race.... Glad you tried to make it a negative about to much power... So he rider made a mistake lol sooo your point was

Everyone can flip a bike big deal.... Its always a rider skill first but if you say a gas vehicle is easier to accelerate than an electric vehicle you have a lot of learning to do

Oh so now it's in the twisty's huh?

I thought it was straight line?

I'd smoke in a straight line with my caliber over a 1/4 mile.

0-60 well you win that but after that almost anything destroys you.

Lol in not scared of a straight line..... Id run your caliber if we were close

Funny you think have a chance..... Whats your 1/4 mile time?

There is a reason basically every professional racer started in a kart....

I'll keep that info to myself.

That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

who gives a fuck about go karts?

I used to think that until you relize that they will always be faster/ quicker/ and better handling than any car you can EVER afford.....

Go get in a kart thats faster than your corvette, bet it ahuts your ass up real quick

Take your girl out to dinner in your go kart............

Sad when you loose an aguement we have to say o well is a staight race now

O well you have to have 2 people

Lmao

I simple stated that go karts have the beat power to weight..... And what my kart has..... Sorry if you can wrap your head around it

the argument is that you said torque wins race..
And you think it doesnt?

So you post a video of a guy crashing a bike lol

We both agree that rider/driver skill first

But you think hp> trq

I think trq> hp

Yes you need both (we both agree there too)

But more trq less hp. Will beat

More hp less trq. If the weight is the same

Agree???

~37hp

~120 ft lbs

Under 500 lbs with rider

Go karts always win power to weight :good:

Compared to what? :ph34r:

It's only 0.074 HP per pound.

A kawasaki H2R has 354HP and weighs about 440 pounds, with rider about 610lbs, which is 0.58HP/pound.

Lmao

You know nothing

Trq wins races, not hp

this is an electric go kart sooo good luck finding something that accelerates faster.....

O wait and handles better

Sigh, not again. Torque at the engine is irrelevant, torque at the wheels is relevant.

How does one change the torque at the wheels? A gearbox.

What doesn't change at the wheels with a gearbox? Horsepower

What is a measurement of acceleration? Horsepower

What is a static rotational force? Torque

Anyone can jump in a tesla a d stop it get that 0-60 in 2.8..... I bet if you put every member in a go kart vs that bike you mentioned with sooo much hp and visa versa

The kart will win everytime, maybe loose once or twice.... Because no one in here can actually do the claimed 0-60 time of a gas car or bike but electric no issues everytime

I am faster then the claimed 0-60 time on my motorcycle.

And you were talking about power to weight ratio, even my "slow" motorcycle has a better power to weight ratio.

72HP and 500lbs for the motorycle and me=0.144, which is almost 2x as high as your kart.

Yes a superkart (250cc 2-stroke) is faster then any sportscar, but they have double the power and more aerodynamic features.

Thinking is the root of all problems...

You ALWAYS get what you pay for.

NO

HP=ACCELERATION.

And i'm not only talking about peak horsepower, the area under the HP curve is the most important one.

VS

http://www.auto-data.net/en/?f=showCar&car_id=17212

BMW330I VS BMW 320D

320D:184HP,380Nm torque, 7.5s to 100km/h (weight:1495kg)

330I:252HP,350Nm torque, 5.9s to 100km/h (weight:1545kg)

So the 320D has more torque at a lower RPM, less HP, even LESS weight, but it's still 1.6s slower then the 330I which has less torque, even weighs more but has 68 more HP

EDIT: last offtopic post from me.

My electric kart must be slower than your bike then. sorry for my misinformation.... My power to weight is just so far off..... This kart must be slower than your bike, and the same powerplant in my bike, makes anything less than a 750 with a pro rider on it ....its bitch......

Why did i even comment.... Wasting my time talking to a wall

O wait they race electric karts against the 250 2 stroke gas karts.... I wont tell you the results.... Lmao

Are you all unfamiliar how an electic motor works? I figured you all would know, some play with a big electric motors (subwoofers) all the time.... Electric motors make 80% of its power at 500 rpms.... When do gas motors make their power and how long does it take them to get to peak rpms

Well the worlds fastest rpm changing motor is the lexus lfa idle- 10000 rpms in 1.1 sec unloaded. Thats still slower than an electric motor developing power......
