That was cruel.Just kidding... but where is it?
Torque is sort of like how much work the engine can do, and HP is how fast it can do that work. The magnificent 850RE trans running through 4.10 gearing should help the P-star lay that 260 lbs/ft of torque down nicely, and the 285 HP up top should help it do so quickly.Yes. It’s just math and physics. A simple pen and paper shows the obvious lack of torque in the Pentastar. So it’s bad. I still want one. The question is: How bad??
Here it is!
Just like it is challenging for me to breathe at that height!For those that don't know.
The IKE is from the bottom of the Eisenhower Tunnel to Silverthorne, CO. It's about 8 miles long. Silverthorne is a little more than 9000' in altitude while the west side of the Eisenhower tunnel is just over 11000ft. So you're starting at an altitude of 1.7 miles and climbing ~2000ft. It can be a challenge for some vehicles.
No kiddin. My wife and I can both run over 2 miles (she can do 5mi). But we both get winded just chasing our kid around the park over there.Just like it is challenging for me to breathe at that height!
Thanks NarratorFor those that don't know.
