Question, and please realize I'm not a member of the High Holy Nurds--so bear with me...

What I just read--that presumes 100hp is needed to get to 100mph or maintain that speed once it is achieved? I'm wondering, probably stupidly, what momentum, once achieved plays in all of this.

I'm thinking about all of those big pre-war cars with less than 100hp reaching 100mph...
