Its not all 16v cars, just valvers, the williams has low down torque, the valver just doesn'tOriginally Posted by Zollo
What I'm saying is though, a Valver's lack of low down power shouldn't count against it around a track at all, because - so long as the driver doesn't mess up - it'll never be below 5k anyway.
You managed to keep your williams between 5 and 6.5k revs
:P Nah! I don't need to keep it above 5k cos, as you say, the Willy is more grunty low down. Plus a Valver revs higher than a Willy, so there's more room to play with after 5k.
Ok, perhaps staying in a 2k power band is a bit much over a whole lap, but you get what I mean... ...
tbh I think lunner's is pretty quick round the track but thats more due to the driver than the car....stripped out deffo helps too.
I'm bored enough to put together a little comparison vid..
nana chasing lunner's stripped rsi then tom16v's 150 bhp fully loaded 16v...draw your own conclusions.

Nice, didn't realise you had any film of me, not fooking bad considering i'm, what 50+ bhp down on you....running 110, and i think i had a passenger in then too
So if entered a longish corner at 3k you would have me for a hole 1k of my rev range and then the valver would pull it back from 4k to 7k and i will make the corner without letting offOriginally Posted by Lunner
Yeah but you can't go full throttle in the corner, which is where the RSi has the advantage wiht the lower down torque.....i'll see you on track at FCS
