You know, the whole 1,200 rpm comment in the cylinder thread made me wonder. How many gears would a car need with a usable rpm range of 600ish rpm?? I am assuming a 600 idle and 1,200 red line.
I think semi trucks have a little more range than that. |
Depends, is it a European or an African Swallow?
- Depends on how much torque it makes. Jay Leno's Blastolene Special redlines at just 2,900 rpm. Six gears only, but over 3,000 ft lbs of torque. The Merlin-powered "Beast" uses a three-speed box. That engine revs to just 3k rpm. There's a Merlin-powered Rover that does 160 mph at 2,000 rpm. It could do 96 mph at 1,200 rpm in the same gear, then. If you have enough torque, shifting down to 600 rpm on each shift, I'd say ten or twelve gears might be enough... :D |
I can add a two speed axle to my Civic and a turbo that is spooled by 650 rpm. We can make this work.
|
it depends on weight too, the boss hoss has 1 gear, no complaints, easy 11 second 1/4 mile. more gears is an option.

which happens to be 101010 in binary. There are three ones in that; one for life, one for the universe and one for everything. Which one is which, I don't know. There are zeroes in there as well, no idea what they are for. The zeroes are the naughty bits of course. |
This is great! I guess my truck kills people.

Truck owners are some of our most valued members. Heck, learning to hypermile a truck will save more gas in a lifetime, than my car will ever use in a lifetime. I would wish more truck owners would find this site.
