it must do because its got more bhp with less weight. How important is torque down the strip?

Monster, with the launch control and the full throttle gearchanges plus the diff, i think it might just win

torque isnt massively important when you are rolling

I think that "190bhp and 137lb/ft through a diff'd up box in a 900kg shell" makes for a weapon of a little track toy...

is over 200bhp per tonne all day long...
and I seem to remember 8k/rpm limit?

Low 14's should be no problem on the qtr mile...
