Peaky power is not suited to an auto..
Agreed totally.
And I dont agree weight is mute...
I agree, but it can be overcome.

Something to realize is that a lot of the high HP guys around here (and some of the fast ones) run peaky setups that require light cars, steep gears, and rpm. A lot of people are just fascinated with horsepower. Hell, how many 400+hp mid 12 sec cars are on this board? Perfect for a race car, but not for heavy car with average mods. They put out high numbers, but are eunuchs at the track. They aren't willing to spend the money, time, or hassle to set the car up right or they just want a high dynoing car but have no idea why it really doesn't perform under real world conditions.
