Thats not true... Its only true when you gear it in a high gear... According to your theary in you put in a direct connection to a axle and you barrley throtled it, it would have high torque. You would get more torque when you open it all the way.

I think you misunderstood the post. I never said peak torque was achieved at the lowest RPM. I agree with you, you wouldn't necessarily get peak torque by just blipping the throttle. But again, peak torque almost always comes before peak RPM.
If peak torque was achieved at peak RPM two things would happen. 1) that engine would have a very short life-span if you wanted to run in that peak torque band and 2) on most tracks where you almost never get to run at peak RPM for very long, you'd never be able to benefit from peak torque, i.e., coming off the corners where you'd need peak torque and you would need it quickly. Think about it. Peak torque is what is going to get you moving and moving quickly. Wouldn't you want to reach that peak torque as quickly as possible ? Building RPM takes time. Give me an engine that developes peak torque at a low RPM. Not to argue with you bro, but I stand correct.
