Like I've said twice now. I never said you were wrong. It's a 20% loss over the flywheel number but 25% gain over the Dyno number. I think we're just mixing symantics when referring to 'drivetrain loss'.
you "correct" him and say that his 1.25 figure is 25%, when his reference is clearly to drivetrain loss.



If you had understood from the beginning, you'd have just agreed....
