IIRC on paper the new Roadster has less bhp than the outgoing model; however, torque is up, which should mean they perform quite similarly.

Was wondering whether anyone has had the chance to compare the two?

Mr. Roadster 2... aka Rod, have you? read


Simon,

I've never driven any Roadster.

Tomorrow will be the first time I'll drive one.

At the Roadster launch at Richard Thorne's a curernt roadster owner is going for an upgrade and he said that there is little difference in the 2 as you said bhp down and Torque up.

TBH.... more torque will make a car feel quicker to the average driver. Average drivers will also be able to lap circuits quicker with more torque as well.

Only experienced and talented drivers are able to trade torque for BHP and get the better results that are ultimately available with this trade.
