Default Torq comparison

I have a 997.2 C4S, with 385 HP and 310 lb-ft of torque. Am looking at a 991.2 , which has 370 HP and 330 lb-ft of torque. I know the cars have many mechanical differences, but does the 330 torque feel substantially different than the 310 torque on the butt meter of renn listers.

Certainly yes because of where the max torque comes into play in each vehicle. Its there much earlier in the 991.2, so it will definitely be noticeable.

The new cars seem faster on the butt dyno.
