There is an old saying...."HP sells cars (and by the evidence on these boards, accessories and tuning packages) and torque wins motor races". Low end torque is basically what racing is about and it is the ONLY thing that one can actually measure.
Horse power is a calculation based on the measured torque of the motor.
