It could be me and my lack of being able to remember things, but this could be a repost

 

Its not a re-post by me... someone sent me that in my email and I thought it was pretty cool... figured there may be someone out there who would be interested...

 

et?

 

I just did a few searches, I can't find anything about this being posted before... may have been though... and I just wasn't searching for the right things...

 

Seen it before on h-t, but it was in the Type R forum.

 

"The Type R drag car and Max-4 powerplant are designed to deliver 250 mph and 5.50-second quarter-mile performance on alcohol and nitromethane."

can't really call it an integra... they just molded an integra bodystyle to spec and fit in on.

still kicks *** though. i read the whole article. nitrous to spool the turbos, alcohol to idle, nitromethane for full throttle gas...

 

pretty good article actually

 

Yeah, pretty impressive engineering if you ask me.

 

now that's a 4 banger!!!

 

yes this is deff. a repost...i saw this on h-a.net about 6 months ago...pretty damn impressive...but the only thing that is "acura/honda" related [ which i could be wrong about the motor] is the chassis...

 

is this the true equation of hp?

 

sort of.. the avg horse does 550 ft-lbs of work in 1 second. in 1 minute, it does 33,000 ft-lbs. to find the work done in 1 revolution, we divide by 1 revolution or (2*Pi) radians and get 5252 rpm. so 1 ft-lb of torque at 5252 rpm = 1 hp.
