Exactly. Torque at-the-wheel benefits from the mechanical advantage of your gearing (in a traditional gas car with gears). So for a quick back of the envelope calculation...

CRV driver: I’ll take this corner on the inside... eh... the outside... well, mostly on the track. Ya, we’ll call that good.

I think my favorite story was super-FWD-donuts... steps listed below.

I am about 20 years old, and this is shortly before cell phones were common. I am out in the country driving my sister’s ‘65 mustang, and FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP.

“Motorcycle helmets are overrated. In a crash, they’ll break your neck.”

“Don’t downshift an automatic to maintain speed while going downhill... because it is cheaper to replace burned out brakes than a blown transmission.”
