And the transmission.

And don't forget the tyres This will be a big challenge for Michelin (assuming Peugeot will run on French tyres): longer stints and the huge diesel torque.

Horsepower is simply torque times rpm, so if the torque doesn't fall off much at max rpm, this would be accurate, though. The diesel would produce higher horsepower.

I thought that was a good little paper.

Peugeot - Back in 2007

Hi guys, don't know if you've heard this or not. I just read it in rally-live.com. But Peugeot are returning to Le Mans in 2007 with a diesel powered car. They will also compete in the LMES.
