So you could look at it from either perspective that if on the same car you are making more torque, the car will accelerate more and be faster too. I guess putting it simply, if you make more average power or torque than previously, it will go faster and quicker. It just appears to me that in a comparison between two identical cars making differing HP and TQ, that since the HP curve defines its potential work capacity, that it better defines how the car will progress down the track than if you were to look at just the torque curve.
