I all, i've got a problem...i'm studyng the dinamycs of our Fsae with Adams/car 2007 and i've got to adapt the torque curve in the default template.
In the file powertrain.pwr there are 3 columns, the first indicate rpm...the third indicate torque.
My problem is the meaning of the second column, it's compose by all negative value, what it's mean?

Thank U for attemptio, ang good luck!

I'm guessing engine braking? Or Power at 0% throttle?

I've undestood the structure of the value...it's a counter with -67.85 of step!
Morever i've seen that in the default template V12 this value has as start value -39262..., and the structure isn't the same as my 600 cc.
I don't understand the meaning, can anybody help me?
