Torque vs. HP Revisted

[vector1]

doesn't matter what numbers you use, you are still operating under the constraints of time, and the only mathematical formula for time is horsepower. the powerband with the highest average horsepower is going to make the best time. f1 cars don't have squat for torque, but notice how fast they are? if you have to operate your car over the highest portion of the torque band because you don't want to go higher in the rpm range, you are still using the most avg. hp within the constraints of your limitations. torque and horsepower have no other relation than horsepower is formulated in time using torque.
