they make almost no torque for what they make in horsepower. Dont u ever see the F1 cars shudder trying to take off from the pits? Dont u ever see them stall taking off from the pits? I mean they die reving the things to 6,000 RPM off the line!!! Think of a diesel engine. Why do u think they have long strokes and tiny pinstons, and they just naturally have lots of torque and not much horsepower. I wonder why that is? Look there is a reason why they are built the way they are. I am really tired of explaining this. No offense.
