Opinion on torque impact on drivability

[drifter17a]

So skyline is 650ish hp and no traction control. I feel very confident driving it around and it does slide but easy to bring back

 

On other hand my m5 f10 has 600hp but feels much harder to control . I don’t drive it in mdm or traction of all day but only when i am on it and prepared

 

m5 has caught me with full tranction on many times than skyline with no traction

 

i think it is partly due to weight and being a 2ton car

 

just wondering what people think

Tyres provide a generally static force against the ground.

They will hold X nm of torque.

You'll probably find that the M5 has much more than X torque in more locations in the rev range (probably earlier on).
