Area under the curve

***egb18c5*** · 10-07-2009, 04:38 AM

I try to make threads so people can open their eyes and think outside the box. And I'm bored lol

So what is area under the curve? Why is it important? Why should we focus more on that than peak power?

Tilegend, k20, opey, stinky and etc can't answer, let these guys do some research lol

fuck it ima take a shot...because the more area u have UNDER THE CURVE the wider the power band. basically if your curve goes up then stays up for a longer "stretch" then the greater your powerband is as opposed to the curve spiking WAAAY up then dropping down, lessining your power band.............hope this sums some of it up lol

Area under the curve is more important than the peak of the curve because its more a measure of power everywhere in the powerband than in just one part. More area under the curve means a more useful powerband and means better acceleration.
