I think the 16% means either it is at 116% of it's torque holding capacity, or it's rotating 116% as fast as is needed to to go the speed it's going. I heard the number from a friend that does a lot of drag racing, but I didn't ask for clarification, since I wasn't interested due to the fact that he races trucks (a blue S10 with a V8 swap) which I don't really care about.
hm. dont understand your part about people not connected to the axle but i guess the no boggin kinda makes sense. well different rear ends kinda help that. but say you dont care how fast your tires wear.... is it still 16%? can you see if you can ask more detail about that from your friend? im curious.
and ooooh. a blue truck. $@#$@#$@#$@#. if i had a blue truck id be SO much faster
what'd he stick in there? 350 like everyone else?
