What’s the difference between between torque and horsepower? Simply put: - Horsepower is how fast a wheel can turn (top end speed aided by torque. no power behind it) - Torque is the turning force applied to the wheel (granny asked you to open the jar because she doesn’t have enough Torque to open it) Hope this clears up the difference. Torque is what matters. Have a great day! Adrian N. Havelock

With the responses I received in PM's on my last few posts about dampers, the topic of inerters has been introduced and since they are largely banned in motorsports it thought they would be a great topic for here. With some thought I would theorize a single inerter could be used to balance the vehicle front and rear to mitigate pitch oscillations from heave inputs then allowing the dampers to be tuned to decrease contact patch load variation. What are some of your theories on the optimization and tuning methods for inerters both off and on track? At what step do you tune the inerter? For people who have some experience any insight is also welcomed no matter how small!
