Follow Us: Donut Media Everybody knows that cars are about horsepower and torque! But what does that even mean? What is Horsepower? What is Torque? We get into the nitty gritty of force- talkin’ ‘bout Torque and ft. lbs., and we build up to the triumphant power we measure with horses. It's Horsepower! ...did I need to say horsepower? We explore the relationship between horsepower and torque. You’ll find out what all those dyno numbers mean, and why diesel engines can make a bunch of torque, but not always as much horsepower as gas engines. It’s FORCE! It’s POWER! It’s HORSES! It’s SCIENCE GARAGE! Bart teaches us how cars work by blowing stuff up and cutting things in half. It’s a science show for the car lover who’s easily bored.
