A good read about horsepower/torque.

Good stuff. Especially cause I hate the saying "Horsepower sells cars. Torque wins races" or whatever it is.

EDIT: I self-moved it to OT from Gen Discussion.

Thanks for setting my brain on fire. It is indeed a very interesting read. Since I am not a high horsepower guy and enjoy low rpm power (2500-5000),the articles contained will give me a reason to research ways to improve what I already have for a street driven car.
