In real world conditions, you actually lose torque through the transmission. And not just a little, but ALOT. The 300ft-lbf torque at the crank becomes only maybe 250-275ft-lbf at the wheels assuming stock rear gears.
So my question is does torque work with the same equation as HP losing about 15% through the drivetrain?
In theory, yes...but 7mph in first @ 2500rpms seems like it would require very steep gears IMO. Do you know what gears your car has now? Are you just roughly estimating that you are at that speed in that gear at that rpm?
Yeah im roughly estimating, i don't know too much about the calculations and numbers. I have the stock gears at the moment.
