A simplified torque curve is built from these four values. The model linearly interpolates between idle (~60% peak torque), peak torque, torque at peak HP, and a slight drop-off at redline.

Simulation Notes

Uses Euler integration (dt=0.01s) with simplified aerodynamic and drivetrain models.
Torque curve is a piecewise-linear approximation from four input values — not a dyno curve.
Traction limit uses a static friction model; no tire slip, weight transfer, or launch control modeled.
Drag uses sea-level air density (0.0765 lb/ft³). No rolling resistance included.
0-100-0 assumes ideal 1.0g braking from 100 mph with no fade.
Real-world times depend on traction, temperature, altitude, driver skill, and many other factors.
