Re: Drivetrain Loss Calculations?

well HP is a function of RPM and torque and is only modified by a correction factor. Aerodynamic drag is not an issue on a chassis dyno...unless for some reason the force of friction increases or decreases with increased and decreased HP respectively...? How can that be the case?
