hmm, I have absolutely no idea, but I guess not much more than a regular car, probably less than 60HP?

To convey concepts, sometimes one would need to say/write more than a short sentence, because that may be making assumption the listener knows a lot of the stuff you know, which may not be true, and then that short explanation brings out more questions to understand what seems like a simple statement to the one who knows :)
