The concept of torque for an engine is the simplification of a basic principle of physics corresponding to the conjunction of 2 forces due to a point of support. The classic example illustrating the idea is the lever arm. In an engine, it is the piston-con-crankshaft assembly which, relying on the bearings of the block, thus creates a rotating movement. So it's the strength of the engine. Horsepower is the product of torque and engine speed. As a result, a large torquey engine pushes at low speeds while a motorcycle engine will need to take turns to express itself, for lack of torque.

Sometimes stories seem unbelievable. One thing is certain, the DeLorean story is a perfect example, so much so that Martin Scorsese could have brought it to the screen. From his beginnings in working life with his first positions at General Motors, to the closure of his recently created company, John Z. Delorean has shone both in his genius and in his astonishing character. Its history and that of its brand, which are little known in their details, deserve some time. A look back is necessary to take stock of a story that is at least... out of the ordinary.
