>Retards that thing a high redline means absolutly anything
>looking at anything other than horsepower and the shape of the horsepower curve.

If you know the horsepower and the shape of the horsepower curve, things like rpm and torque are meaningless.

From there the only reason you need to know the rp plot on a horsepower graph is to know how to correctly set gearing.

Once you know the horsepower, torque means nothing.

At what rpm an engine makes XYZ amount of horsepower means absolutely nothing unless you're talking about shape of the curve.

If you throw a ball at a wall, then throw that same ball twice as fast at that same wall, then throw that same ball three times as fast at that same wall.
You really don't think there is a linear relationship between the forces exerted between the ball and the wall each time it's thrown?

You have a yo-yo you are swinging over your head, you then swing that yo-yo over your head twice as fast, you then swing that yo-yo over your head three times as fast.
You don't think there is a linear relationship between the application of force and the speed the yo-yo swings? You don't think there is a linear relationship between the tension on the string and the speed the yo-yo is swinging?

Have you ever taken physics?

This is something I have literally never heard of happening. Rockers will break before pushrods will bend.

I've broken all kinds of shit in my time on this planet. But even when I snapped a timing chain at 6500 RPM and lunched half the valves, the pushrods were all just fine and got reused in the next build. Protip: Don't run without a harmonic balancer, no matter how much weight it saves.

I have snapped rockers on OHC engines from just plain overreving, though.

High torque doesn't mean shit in a vacuum.

Having high horsepower DOES mean something. It doesn't matter what rpm that horsepower is made at.

The idiots that say:
>Hurr TORQUE MATTERS!
and the other idiots that say:
>Durr High RPM IS BEST

Are both equally stupid. Neither means anything without the other and when you factor them both together you are talking about horsepower.
>>
>want to rev higher
>completely pointless since power drops off at 6.5k anyway
>>
>>13852144
Obviously both are cruical, but in an absolute sense more than enough RPM is better than more than enough torque, because assuming a real engine, and everything else being then same, the high RPM engine can trade RPM for torque to the wheels if it needs to, but you can't trade excess torque for anything (other than wheelspin kek)
>>
>>13852139
>for practical purposes, I can reasonably use more gears if I have a greater rev range.

Again, this is wrong. Gearing doesn't work the way you think it does.

Did you know that semi-trucks have 12-18 speed transmissions? and their diesel engines rev to less than 3000rpm usually?

More gear ratios can be used regardless of the maximum rpm of the engine and a larger range of rpm does not equate to more possible or necessary gears.

You simply do not understand how gearing works. Number of gears and gear spacing has more to do with the size/width of the powerband than anything else.
>>
>>13852169
> You simply do not understand how gearing works. > Number of gears and gear spacing has more to do with the size/width of the powerband than anything else.

Of course that's true, and I understand gearing, but it seems to me that you cannot use as many gears as easily in a smaller rev range.

Then again, if your engine has a lot of mass, it takes a lot longer to go up or down 200rpm than in a smaller car, so the closeness of each gear doesn't matter as much.
>>
>>13852168
>Obviously both are cruical, but in an absolute sense more than enough RPM is better than more than enough torque
No. This is wrong.

>assuming a real engine, and everything else being then same, the high RPM engine can trade RPM for torque to the wheels if it needs to
This is also wrong. You don't understand how gearing works.

For a given amount of hrosepower at high rpm an engine can be geared down to produce XYZ amount of torque to the wheels for a given wheel speed.

The same can be said for an equal amount of horsepower as above produced at a lower engine speed that can be geared up to produce XYZ torque at the wheel for a given wheel speed.

You seem to think gearing only works one way which is incorrect.

You are basing your understanding of rev ranges and engine speed from your first hand experience with driving cars in a relatively uniform rev range (typically 800rpm to 6500rpm or so) on a tachometer.

Forget all of this.

Imagine every vehicle, from a 3000rpm redline big rig to a 9000rpm S2000, to a 16,000rpm motorcycle having their rev range scaled to a single uniform engine speed indicator labeled 1 (idle) to 10 (redline). Each engine's redline (be it 3000rpm, or 16,000rpm) is indicated by the 10 place on our readout. Every engine is scaled to the same Y plot regardless of RPM.

Now overlay every engine's horsepower curve and compare them. This is how engine output really is compared. More RPM does not matter, More torque is not even factored. All that matters is the horsepower over the span of the rev range. This is true because gearing equalizes engines relative to wheel (output) speed.

No it doesn't.

Horsepower is horsepower, be it at 1000rpm or 10,000rpm. In either case either of these engines is capable of accomplishing the same amount of work over time.

>youre fucking retarded
No, you're just shit at physics.

>really dude? really?
Yes, really. Horsepower is horsepower regardless or the RPM it's made at.

>you telling me that area under the curve doesnt matter?
What the fuck are you talking about? You don't even know what you're talking about.

"Area under the curve" is in reference to power spread and indicating a "powerband". A high rpm moor and a low rpm motor can bot have lots of "area under the curve" and is highly dependent on the setup of each engine being talked about. But in no case does the rpm at which a given amount of horsepower is made dictate "area under the curve".

You do not compare powerbands on an rpm per rpm basis between different motors with different rev ranges. Gearing equalizes rev ranges. That's why horsepower matters and not torque. Torque changes with gearing, horsepower stays the same.

>>13852319
>both rev to lets say 5k, both make a peak of 300hp.
At peak power both engines are capable of accomplishing the same work for a given amount of time. both engines would have roughly the same accelerative capabilities with appropriate gearing. The engine on the left would just be easier to drive and have a 'seat of the pants' feeling of being faster and would be faster out of it's powerband taller gears.

But this is besides my point. The rpm that horsepower is made at at each point on a y plot is inconcequential. The horsepower is what matters.

In your example the engine on the left makes more horsepower over a wider net range. It doesn't matter if the engine on the left redlines at 3000rpm and the engine on the right redlines at 10,000rpm. The RPM doesn't matter.

Reread:

Gearing appropriate for the size and amount of power the engine makes versus the mass and operating speed of the vehicle.

>engine a would be significantly faster because its making more power for a longer amount of time.
This is not true. This would only be true if engines relied on a single gear ratio for acceleration, but they don't.

Engine's accelerate in the lowest gear that will allow a given speed for the given amount of power. Meaning for engine A, it doesn't make sense to accelerate in 3rd gear from 2000rpm, just because it makes more power than engine B down there. It would accelerate in a lower g ear, say 1st or 2nd which would put the engine closer to it's power peak. That would equate to more acceleration that lugging it in the fat, yet weaker portion of the power band. You would do the same thing with Engine B, and with equivelent power rowing through the gears Engine B would net the same approximate acceleration.

The only time engine A would be "faster" is when accelerating in an inappropriate gear (sub-maximal acceleration) or when starting off in first. Which is why I said Engine A might FEEL faster (and would be easier to drive at 7/10th's pace), but in reality, under maximal acceleration conditions, Engine A would have small advantage in first gear, but after that both engines would have the same amount of acceleration force through the gears because of the equivalent power.

>yes but cars dont take off from the line at peak power
Taking off from the line is a very small and ultimately inconsequential regime of operation. Most acceleration occurs in gear in motion.
If all you care about is how your car gets off the line in first, yes a fatter power spread will net better results.

But this is independent of, and does not contradict, my earlier point that rpm itself and torque itself does not matter.

>thats wrong, with everything else being equal
Everything else being equal, INCLUDING power you fucking retard.

> you will make more power at higher RPM
That's wrong. Simply spinning an engine faster does not produce power. You must produce the requisite torque at that rpm to produce power at that RPM. meaning your engine must be mechanically capable of holding together and able to flow enough air/have high enough VE% for that rpm.

We are talking about the RPM at which power is made. Higher RPM power is no better than lower rpm power and indeed, the RPM does not even matter (nor the torque). The horsepower produced does.

You are sayin:
>HURR DURR MORE POWER IS BETTER
Which is blatantly fucking obvious and no one is arguing.

You are then equating higher rpm alone to more power which is fucking wrong.
Just as wrong as trying to equate more torque alone to more power.

Stop being militantly wrong you fucking retard.

no you dumb ass nigger
the power is not equal, because the power changes when you rev higher

the power cannot remain equal, the power is the result of everything but the redline bing higher being equal

meaning they make equal torque, meaning the one who spins faster makes more power

>That's wrong. Simply spinning an engine faster does not produce power. You must produce the requisite torque at that rpm to produce power at that RPM. meaning your engine must be mechanically capable of holding together and able to flow enough air/have high enough VE% for that rpm.
what I said

>We are talking about the RPM at which power is made.
thats irrelevant since you said " everything else being equal"


if you have two engines, with the only difference being the redline, the one with a higher redline will make more power until the point where it cannot physically make more power

>>HURR DURR MORE POWER IS BETTER

it is, it is an advantage

>the power is not equal, because the power changes when you rev higher

No it doesn't. Not automatically. an engine does not simply make more power because it spins faster, like I said it must produce the requisit torque at that rpm to produce more power. Most engines cannot do that.

>the power cannot remain equal
Yes it can. Most engines taper off their peak power until readline. Pretty much no production engines make peak power at redline. Raising the redline will not produce more power.

>the power is the result of everything but the redline bing higher being equal
Not only is that wrong, but it makes absolutly no fucking sense.

>meaning they make equal torque
Are you talking peak torque or instantaneous torque at redline? Most engines are far past tapering of peak torque by their power peak. And they continue to taper off to redline, Spinning the engine faster does not magically produce more power when torque is already tapering.

>meaning the one who spins faster makes more power

That's fucking wrong. Engines do not produce more power by spinning faster unless they have the requisite flow requirements met for the higher rpm.

>thats irrelevant since you said " everything else being equal"
You said spinning an engine faster nets more power. This is wrong and stupid.

>thats irrelevant since you said " everything else being equal"
I did, including power. This discussion has always been about the rpm at which power is made.

>if you have two engines, with the only difference being the redline, the one with a higher redline will make more power until the point where it cannot physically make more power
That's fucking wrong on so many counts as to be absolute idiocy.

>it is, it is an advantage
More power being better is so obvious it is assumed to not even be a point of debate. You claiming such in a debate just shows you do not understand the conversation.
>>
>>13853045
The conversation is not about whether more power is better than else power you fucking idiot. It is about whether having a higher rpm engine is better than having a lower rpm engine.

You claimed:
>>13852934

Which is false. Higher revving or lower revving is meaningless. What matters is how much power is produced regardless of the RPM it is produced at.
>>
>>13853080
>Not automatically.
irrelevant, in the case of everything being equal, an engine like, for example a Ford 5.0 v8 will make more power at 6k rpm than at 3k rpm

sorry, grasping at the "p-power is equal" is wrong and proves how desperate you are

power isnt equal, power is the result of revving higher with the same amount of torque

an engine that has the redline at its physical limits will make more power than an engine which redline is below that point

No, you're saying "more power is better"
No one is even arguing otherwise. Obviously more power is better than less power.

What we're talking about is whether higher rpm is better than lower RPM. The fat is, it is not.

>power isnt equal
Power is equal because I said it was equal in my example. You do not get to set the terms of my example after I have already set them.

>power is the result of revving higher with the same amount of torque
As I explained. simply revving higher does not necessitating making more power. That's not how engines work.

That is wrong. An engine will only make power if it can support the flow and VE% to make the requisite rote for that RPM. This is true regardless of it's physical limits.

>more power = better
No one is arguing that more power is better than less power you fucking idiot. The argument is whether more RPM, or specifically making power at a higher rpm is better than making power at lower RPM. The answer is, it's not.

you are fucking stupid

you said "everything being equal"
if an engine is making 300 hp at 5000 rpm and another engine is making 300 hp 8000 rpm is pretty clear both engines arent equal

>>13852215
Compare:
You make 250hp and 250 torque at 5252 rpm
You make 250hp and 125torque at 10504 rpm.

You have the same transmission from the final drive is half the ratio on the low torque, high rev engine.

You now make the same 250 torque, but it works twice as hard.

What really matters is the power you get the rear wheels given your gearing, and the range you have a good deal of peak horsepower at. Ideally you want to be able to gear it where you are back to 80-90% of peak power after each shift
Low torque, high revving engines can seem much faster than you'd imagine on power due to their shorter gearing keeping them near their peak power, as well as feeling torquey-er than their blb-ft would imply.

An RX8 isn't quite as peaky with its power as an S2000 is, either, but that engine was definitely too weak for that car. It belonged in a <2700lb car. Could have had a much more respectable <5.5s 0-60 then

In this exampled based on the information given. Both engines are exactly equivalent.

There is no inherent advantage (or disadvantage) to performance with the second engine spinning to twice the rpm.

RPM is not a metric of performance. It is only useful for it's contribution to determining horsepower.

No, I'm preventing the argument from becoming "THIS ENGINE HAS MORE POWER THAN THAT ENGINE SO IT'S BETTER" which is not the point and is fucking stupid.
I'm breaking it down to the difference being the RPM that each engine operates at which is the subject of the debate.

It is no surprise to anyone (other than you) that an engine with more power has higher performance than an engine with lower power.

>you are fucking stupid, the engine that makes 300 hp at lower RPM obviously has more displacement along other variables, making them non equal
Wrong, it is entirely possible for two engines with equal displacement and different flow capabilities to have the same output at different RPM ranges.

No one made any argument about this. This is your argument that you keep parroting back at me with no point in sight.

This has nothing to do with whether high rpm horsepower or low rpm horsepower is better.

>you are fucking stupid, you said "with everything else being equal" aside from redline
Yes, meaning critical metrics that I was discussing. Like horsepower. Nowhere did I ever mention displacement or anything like that in any of my examples because displacement is moot to the discussion.

>cool, I never made an argument about two different engines either

I didn't see anyone post anything in kilowatts.

Regardless, the argument breaks down like this:

Saying "more RPM is better is wrong. More RPM doesn't equate to more power.

Saying "more RPM with the same torque level is better" is stupid because you're just saying "more power is better"

There is a distinction there and you don't seem to understand it.

Not back pedaling, I was just under the impression that you weren't some sort of super autist grown in a lab that couldn't into reasonable discussion.
Comparing an engine against a literally identical engine serves no end and is fucking stupid. The fact that you thought that was an argument shows YOU are fucking stupid.

The fact remains, your assertion that "more/higher RPM is better" is flatly wrong for reasons I've already explained to you in detail.

Then why not make the redline 9000rpm? If a higher redline equates to more power, why not take it to 10,000rpm?

>it'll break

Sure, but a Coyote can take another 500-1000rpm over stock surely right? Why not do that?

Because a higher redline doesn't equate to more powere you fucking idiot.

A coyote is already falling off in it's torque when it makes peak power. increasing the redline would not equate to more power.

Your assertion of "higher redline is better" is flatly stupid.

>see above, it makes more power
You're saying lowering the redline on an engine decreases power. That does not prove your assertion that a higher redline is better.

sorry autist, no one is arguing revving a stock engine higher will make more power, adding a strawman to the backpedal?

doesnt mean a higher redline isnt a bonus, and doesnt mean a higher redline with the supportive mods WILL NOT make more power

increasing redline by itself does nothing, increasing the flow, reducing rotating assembly weight and other modifications will equate in more power

neither comparing two engines prove that a lower redline is better

Exactly, thus higher redline or more rpm is not better. Your initial claim was wrong.

>no one is arguing revving a stock engine higher will make more power
That's exactly what you argued when you said "more rpm is better" and "higher redline is better"

>doesnt mean a higher redline isnt a bonus
I've asked several times and you cannot point out what that bonus is.

>doesnt mean a higher redline with the supportive mods WILL NOT make more power
That doesn't mean it will either. A higher redline does not equate to more power.

Those same mods could ust as easily equate to additional torque to produce more power. This does not mean another retarded blanket statement like "more torque is better" is true across the board.

>increasing redline by itself does nothing
Thus your assertion of "more revs" or "higher redline" being better is bullshit.

>reducing rotating assembly weight and other modifications will equate in more power
Meaning increasing torque at higher RPM. Which is just a long winded way of saying increasing horsepower.

Which goes back to my earlier point: RPM or quantified torque doesn't matter. Only horsepower.

>neither comparing two engines prove that a lower redline is better
I never argued that a lower redline is better. I argued that it doesn't fucking matter so long as the required horsepower is produced. Be it at 5000rpm, 20,000rpm, or 100rpm.

broather powerband, more power, lower power at lower RPM which is good for circuit racing etc

no, you could even arguee that it will produce less because of inertia, just like lighter flywheels

>I never argued that a lower redline is better
you argued that an engine make the same power at lower RPMs is better, it isnt, specially not if you consider the fact that an engine that revs higher probably takes less time to rev to 8000 rpm than the other engine to rev to 5000
the only bonues would be reliability, but its not that simple

With supportive mods more torque is better.
More mods focus on increasing torque within a fixed rpm range than increasing redline to increase the rpm range.

Your assertion that a higher redline is better is wrong. Literally the same arguments can easily be made about increasing torque within a rev range to increase power that you are putting forth about increasing redline. Your assertion and the premise of your argument is stupid.

>>b-but aftermakret is cheating
I never said anything close to that. Nice strawman.

>manufacturers themselves modifiy engines to rev higher to make more power
They more often modify the engines to increase torque to make more power without altering the redline. This renders your "more rpm is better" argument as stupid.

>broather powerband
A higher redline does not create a broader powerband.

>more power
A higher redline does not equate to more power.
Additionally your statement was regarding benefits beyond additional power.

> lower power at lower RPM which is good for circuit racing
HAHAHAHAHA

confirmed for benchracer, enjoy wheelspin at corner exit, literally every race car has a linear powerband as opposed to a flat powerband because of this, even superbikes, and no its not only a product of high revving small displacement engines

>You seriously think rotational inertia produces torque in an engine?
confirmed for never ever going past page 1 of a physics book

once an engine is rotating the higher inertia will help it keep rotating, and it will make it easier to rotate faster, this is why heavier wheels take a lot more time and effort to stop

a heavier rotating assembly will only make it harder to rev from idle

read a book about engines

>You think lighter flywheels reduce engine torque?
see above, a lighter flywheel will deaccelerate an engine faster, because of inertia
besides, i never implied a lighter flywheel reduces engine torque it was an example about how the weight of the rotating assembly does not increase or decrease the torque output by itseld

No it fucking doesn't. Your earlier retarded posts do not prove anything other than you are infact a retard.

>confirmed for benchracer, enjoy wheelspin at corner exit
>hurr throttles don't exist

You're a fucking idiot.

>literally every race car has a linear powerband as opposed to a flat powerband
No, it's because race cars compete in displacement limited classes. Thus they only care about maximizing peak numbers in the upper parts of the rev range. They do this at the expense of lower rpm power because lower rpm power is not as important because it can be made up for via gearing.

This doesn't mean low rpm power is bad for racing you fucking idiot. Lower rpm power actually allows you to stay in a taller gear and minimize shift time while still maximizing acceleration.

>even superbikes
Superbikes compete in a displacement limited class as well. But there is constant battle to provide midrange and low rpm power to increase rideability without sacrificing top end power.

>no its not only a product of high revving small displacement engines
It is a product of the classes these cars race in and their displacement limitations. Non-displacement limited classes make ample use of large displacement engines with plenty of low rpm grunt, Just look at the Corvette and Viper ALMS cars.
>>
>>13854431
>No it fucking doesn't
sorry but it does, otherwise race engines wouldnt have a high redline

higher redline lets you get more power out of the same displacement, which is an advantage, and it means the engine will have a progresive power delivery, which is also an advantage

not only that, but have totally failed to provide why it wouldnt be an advantage

>You're a fucking idiot.
seems like you are the one who belives engines are on-off switches

the reason you want a linear powerband as opposed to a flat curve is why making power at high RPMS is an advantage

>No, it's because race cars compete in displacement limited classes.
rally cars are dlimited by displacement yet they dont rev high, they make a lot more torque instead

again, because of the appliccation, you want torque on a rally car to pick speed from a tight corner, as opposed to progressive power delivery in a racetrack

> Thus they only care about maximizing peak numbers in the upper parts of the rev range.
thats wrong
making power at higher rpms =/= dyno queen
the reason manufacturers have variable valve lift and timing is exactly that, to be able to make more power at high rpms withou sacrificing power at low rpms

>Lower rpm power actually allows you to stay in a taller gear and minimize shift time while still maximizing acceleration.
>being this retarded
lower rpm power wont make up for the taller gear ratio

>Non-displacement limited classes make ample use of large displacement engines with plenty of low rpm grunt, Just look at the Corvette and Viper ALMS cars.
if you belive those engines do no rev higher than most production engines, and that the teams dont want the engines to rev higher, specially since the corvette was penalized with throttle body spacers, you are severly mistaken

yet again, you have been wrong on every point ITT

This is the biggest bunch of broscience bullshit I've ever read on /o/. you have no idea how inertia works. Newton's first law is like... middle school tier physics and you still managed to fuck it up.

>read a book about engines
Irony.
Try graduating highschool before you tell anyone to read something.

> a lighter flywheel will deaccelerate an engine faster
This is wrong. Again, basic physics here bud.
A lighter flywheel will not accelerate or "deaccelerate" an engine at all.
Inertia dictates that the mass will continue to spin until acted uppon by an outside force. In the case of a freewheeling engine/flywheel it will slow because of the friction forces acting on the bearings/cylinder walls and compression forces from the piston.
A heavier rotating mass will be less susceptible to these friction/compression forces than a lighter one.
In either case the mass of the rotating assembly does not exert an accelerative force to an already spinning drivetrain in any regard.
tl;dr adding a lighter or heavier flywheel does not change the torque produced. It only changes the maximum rate at which the angular velocity changes based on a fixed input force/power to the system.

>backpedal >>13852964 high revving is an advantage
Wrong. You are illiterate. I never argued that high or low revving engines have an advantage. I've consistently argued that it doesn't fucking matter. You've been consistently wrong in claiming that high revving engines are somehow better.


>and thats why you are fucking stupid
Explain how the rpm at which a fixed power output is made has any effect on performance. Explain how the rpm component matters at all beyond calculating horsepower.
>>
>>13854467
>race engines wouldnt have a high redline
Racing engines are displacement limited, thus they cannot produce more torque realistically and must compensate by producing more power.

>higher redline lets you get more power out of the same displacement
That doesn't mean higher redline is better, that just means a higher redline is a way to produce power within a set of arbitrary rulesets. This is just like if racing was rpm limited engines would have higher and higher displacement (to produce more and more torque) to produce power within that rule limitation.

>seems like you are the one who belives engines are on-off switches
You claimed low rpm power is abd for racing because of wheel spin, this implies power produced cannot be controlled with a throttle and instead must be limited by engine design to not produce power in certain circumstances. You are a retard.

>you want a linear powerband as opposed to a flat curve is why making power at high RPMS is an advantage
Making power at ANY rpm is an advantage. It literally does not matter at what rpm power as mad so long as the required power is produced. That is what you do not understand.

>rally cars are dlimited by displacement yet they dont rev high, they make a lot more torque instead
Because WRC engines are power limited as well as displacement limited. So is is beneficial to make as much power through the rev range as possible while still hitting the peak power limit.

>to be able to make more power at high rpms withou sacrificing power at low rpms

Peak power is the goal, if peak power can be achieved while still producing power through the rev range, that will be done as well. But they're not going to sacrefice peak power in order to make mostly useless low rpm power in racing.

>lower rpm power wont make up for the taller gear ratio
that's a retarded blanket statement absent any numbers. You have no idea if this is true absent any situational data.
>>
>>13854483
>I actually went 4 years in a physics book you twat.
then you would know how inertia affect centrifugal and centripetal forces, and how a lighter rotating assembly wont necessary make more torque

>newtons first law
yes

a heavier object will be harder to stop or get moving, in the case of a heavier rotating assembly, it will be harder to start to rotate, but it wont stop rotating as fast as as a lighter one and it will be easier to rotate once its moving

>A lighter flywheel will not accelerate or "deaccelerate" an engine at all.
its like you are one of those "install a stage 3 flywheel bro, it wont make the stock engine deaccelerate faster" plebs

> I never argued that high or low revving engines have an advantage. I've consistently argued that it doesn't fucking matter. You've been consistently wrong in claiming that high revving engines are somehow better.
good fucking god
are you going tro try to backpedal again and now imply gear ratios can be changed, but everything else remains equal??

power delivery, its that simple

>>13854520
>That doesn't mean higher redline is better, that just means a higher redline is a way to produce power within a set of arbitrary rulesets
that doesnt mean its not an advantage, and you are forgetting the fact that a high revving engine has a more progressive power delivery?

in which case, bigger displacement WILL be an advantage

not really, lets try an example, because you cannot grasp the concept
prototype racing, like lmp1 dictates displacement, but it doesnt dictate bore and stroke ratio
there is a reason why you dont see undersquare 100 rpm redline engines with tall gear ratios, guess why?

>how a lighter rotating assembly wont necessary make more torque
It won't. Torque is a force. Force will be applied regardless of mass and regardless of whether or not any work is done.

>a heavier object will be harder to stop or get moving
> it will be harder to start to rotate
>it will be easier to rotate once its moving
Try to mentally reconcile these three statements. Really think them through.

You've asserted that a mass will be be harder to get moving but easier to move once it is already moving.

Now consider Newton's Second Law: F=ma or a=F/m
Meaning the acceleration of a body is always proportional to it's mass and the force acting upon it. This is regardless of whether it is at rest or in motion.

A mass does not suddenly become easier to move once it begins moving. The same force is required for an equal change in velocity regardless of the beginning state of the mass in either example.

>its like you are one of those "install a stage 3 flywheel bro, it wont make the stock engine deaccelerate faster" plebs
A lighter flywheel will make an engine freewheel accelerate and decelerate more quickly. and contribute to faster in-gear acceleration.

Where it suffers is the initial inertial transfer of energy when starting out and equalizing speed between the engine and transmission input.

>are you going tro try to backpedal again
You keep using that word...

>power delivery, its that simple
Using two buzz words does not answer my request for an explanation.

>>13854571
>there is a reason why you dont see undersquare 100 rpm redline engines with tall gear ratios, guess why?

Because of the practicalities of making such an engine. To produce such an engine that made sufficient power, massive amounts of torque would have to be made necessitating huge weight penalties which are deleterious to racing.
Additionally the gear ratios necessary for gearing 100rpm up to wheels speeds that would be useful for racing cars would be highly impractical and inefficient.

But your "100rpm" engine is two orders of magnitude out of scale with the realities of modern engines and thus not a valid or credible example.
>>
>>13854655
>It won't. Torque is a force. Force will be applied regardless of mass and regardless of whether or not any work is done.
yes, but it will change how much power is spent actually rotating the crankshaft and moving the pistons and rods up and down. and how much is spent bringing it up to speed again in the case if it being too light

>Meaning the acceleration of a body is always proportional to it's mass and the force acting upon it.
it already has a force
if you consider that a lighter rotating aseembly will deaccelerate faster, lets say in a 1 secon period of letting of the gas, you will need more power to bring it to its initial speed, simply because it lost more speed than a lsightly heavier one

of course a much heavier one will take a lot more energy to spin in the first place, but that is not my point

>This is regardless of whether it is at rest or in motion.
its not that easy

>A mass does not suddenly become easier to move once it begins moving.
wut
yes it does
perhaps in an enviroment with no gravity or friction, but once you overcome those, its easier

>[citation needed]
pic related

and before ou go "hurr durr but how is that relevant"
you dont want maximum power while exiting a corner, its the same with racing cars, specially open wheel formulas "muh flat torque curve" is a meme LS fags spew without knowing what it means

>massive amounts of torque would have to be made necessitating huge weight penalties which are deleterious to racing.
that is not only the factor, a high revving engine is more responsive, it has a progressive power deliver, since most high revving engines have a bigger bore, you can fit bigger valves, it virbates less, its easier to balance

there are several factors why high revving is an advantage

can you point out why it isnt?
