is it just me, or does the word 'torques' which JC used a few times tonight REALLY annoy anyone else?

its lovely that is has 1000 torques..... but until we know what units thats in, it means feck all really.....

earlier today i was all set to slate philth about his claims of 286 torque, when i realised it was almost certainly in Nm, which converted to lb ft gives 210, which is about what it should have!

argh!

although i still love the show, its just going a little too 'entertainment show' and less 'car show' for my liking....

they dont even always give out the car stats these days now.... and only seem to road test two cars a week now!

its cos about 80% of the people watching wouldnt know torque if people twisted there nipples off at 85nm or 65 lb/ft. so there no need for all these fancy measuring units for the majority of the viewers. and also we shouldnt be using imperical measurements anyway these days.so p/c speaking, we should know the unit of measurement anyway.

Im with you there nick, it sounds horrible and completely removes any meaning!

Technically yes, but different manufacturers give specs in different units, and we are still in miles over here! not Km like in the rest of europe.
