An F1 car has less torque than a 335i. What do you think is gonna win in a race?
A 335d has 425lbft of tq vs my M5 which has 383lbft. Which is gonna win in a race?
(The 335d even peaks at like 1200rpm whereas my car peaks at a lofty 6100rpm)
TQ has very little to do with a car assuming that it is geared properly.

As noted already, you're viewing this quote through a myopic lens.
That is a well known quote. Quoted in almost any racing book you will find on the shelves. Specifically that is a quote from Ross Bentley--- you can look him up if you're not a car nut. Keep the insults out of it unless you can back up your statements or contribute something positive to the thread.
