See gunit

2.

The force that raises your heels off of the floor when you take a leak with "morning wood".

3.

Simply put from Horsepower/Torque Race Perspective, Torque is the low end power of the car.

Build a motor for low end torque and it will usually take care of horsepower.

Big Blocks Often tend to be good friends with torque.

Torque is often created from an excessive stroke on big blocks, thus there non high reving attributes.

My 1968 Oldsmobile 98 Weighs 4580 and is slow as hell (off the line) but has around 500ft/pds of torque and will roast tires like no tomorrow. (thats with a 2.83 diff)

See torque, 455, 500, 425, 430, horsepower, chevy, ford, 442, chevelle, cutlass, skylark, buick, big block

4.

something ricers dont have. helps acceleration. often found in V8s and trucks ranging from a Ford F150 (with V8) to a Peterbilt(WAY over 2200FT LBs here, dun mess with a semi, it can literally rip yo car in half) and some SUVs. known to cause wheelstands, burnouts, powerslides(NOT drifting, totally differant, drifting is E-brake derives, powersliding is just sheer torque), donuts and good ET times.

shit dude, that thing aint got no torque, im afraid i cant pink slip it so i dun humilitate u too badly...with a semi

5.

Physics related. Reference to moment of a couple. The product of distance between a couple and the magnitude of one part of the couple!!!

Geek it up yo haha

Attempt to balance the ship by calculating the minimum torque for its meta centre to remain permanently above its centre of gravity.

See Sophie

6.

The turning ability of an object or power source. Also, see Dodge Viper.

Also how horsepoweris determined.

To go that fast, you've got to have a lot of torque.

7.

Torque = (Horsepower * 5252) / RPM

It is better to make torque at high rpm than at low rpm, because you can take advantage of *gearing*.

See horsepower, force, watt, performance
