is not the sprint accelaration or the top speed, it is not horse power, but what torque does. Torque is what gets you out of a turn onto the straight in a catapult manner. It is not explosive like a gun projectile, which is like shifting down in the turn and not before the turn having that shaky rear tail when the rear wheel looses grip for a moment to just catch it again, torque is the rubberband that pulls you away....
