We all sound like Kevin - he's a good teacher.

 

Which truck ya Talkin about ,Chad?

 

Exactly, torque determines how quickly you can do it and hp determines how long and how much.

 

The problem is that most people don't understand the difference and they buy HP but drive TQ.

 

Nate----- Trent's Truck VS Josh's truck

 

Oh, I'd take either one. Isn't it sometimes Trent wins and sometimes Josh wins, I am pretty sure i have seen Trent win before. A diesel seems to make more torque at lower rpm than a gasser, so it makes more HP at lower RPM.

 

Yea I got Ttomp this time but it was more of a hook issue than anything. I out hooked him that is why I won. If you put us both on a tight track were he can use his power he should beat me. But I got him at Glenford this year on a tight track so I guess its just luck of the draw. He is up on me this year but as they say there is no substition for "$"."give:

 

Good driving and being able to spot a good line helps a ton also.

 

it's called hook my friends........ when it's turning 8300rpm, it's not going anywhere good
