Is Torque King?

I had typed up a whole response to this thread but after I read it I thought it sounded like I was bashing the author of the thread..
So in not so many words..I do this for a living,40 years..almost everyday in the summer I build and tune on perf cars..small blocks with 5.57 gears big blocks with no gear, all kinds.
If you have a street car..you want TQ..!!
At the drag strip you can use 7.17's if you need tq.
Just my take on it..
