Torque and F1 engines

[Smurf]

Greatings,

You always hear about the hp of F1 engines and CART engines. I've heard anywhere between 800hp (approx 615kw) and 950hp (approx 730kw) for F1 engines and 750hp (approx 577kw) for CART engines. Any idea the level of torque these engines have. I think someone said a couple of years ago that F1 engines have around 700nm. I guess torque is as important due to the low overall weight. Has anyone have some info they can share.

Note: All hp/kw figures are at flywheel.

Cheers

I meant to say torque isn't as important as power for F1/CART. Correct me if I'm off the planet.

you can figure it out if you find out what rpm it makes max HP at you can just reverse the hp /tourqe equation, i cant remember exactly what it is...

i think its

hp = tourque x rpm

so reverse it as

hp / rpm = tourque
