You're right, I did. Added down below with your changes = Van (NEW)
Interesting to draw a link to my conclusions on the dyno curves themselves.
I poined out that Brunburg has the best torque, Riley the best peak HP, and
you the 2nd place in both instances. Now look at the acceleration & top
speed figures:
Brunberg's the quickest
Riley's the fastest
You're in 2nd place on both.
Therefore, we were able to replicate that old physics law that tells you
that, provided similar weight & gearing,
HP = Top Speed
Torque = Acceleration
Cool!
Arranged in slowest -> fastest by 0-60 and then top speed:
Car 0-100 Top Sp.
1-2 2-3 3-4 4-5 Top Sp
Cammisa 8.4 199 56/6510 89/6360
126/6120 160/6100 V-6100rpm
Harder 7.7 204 59/REDL 97/REDL
134/6590 171/6600 V-6340rpm
Van (CIS) 7.7 209 59/REDL 96/REDL
139/6610 177/6600 V-6280rpm
Van (Mot) 7.4 216 62/REDL
100/REDL 144/6830 184/6580 V-6480rpm
McDowall 7.4 221 59/REDL 95/REDL
140/REDL 179/REDL V-6770rpm
Van (New) 7.1 216 57/REDL 93/REDL
134/6830 175/REDL V-5730rpm
Brunberg 6.1 204 58/REDL 95/REDL
131/6360 160/6090 V-6260rpm
Key: sec. kmh kmh/rpm kmh/rpm kmh/rpm kmh/rpm
GEAR-rpm
Remember:
1. Brunberg's results are for the Sciretta, which is lighter than a Mk2
with worse aerodynamics
2. Different tire sizes create slightly different ratios
3. REDL -> The highest RPMs measured in the dyno test (ranges from 6750 to
7000rpm)
Enjoy!
