200 hp with your foot mashed to the floor lugging at 1100 rpm isn't going to seem like a tow beast to the driver. But it wouldn't be bad for sure.
200 hp at 1100 rpm takes 955 ft/lbs of torque. That would be pretty beastly to me! The chart actually shows about 100 hp at 1100 rpm, which equates pretty closely to the 457 ft/lb off idle torque the motor is supposed to have.
Yeah, I was looking at the scale on the wrong side of the chart. But the 457 lb-ft of torque isn't anywhere near idle. It takes 100% throttle to get that. :)
