The Duratec final drive is 4.06
Yes our much flatter power curve helps, but so does the fact our coefficient of drag is very low for a production car. The SVT is even lower as the ground effects actually are there for
more than just good looks!
Also comparing to the cars you listed they have a large torque advantage which gets them moving easier,but their portly weight and aerodynamics make them pigs once they are moving.
Perfect example of this is a Ford Lightning. Massive torque and great short numbers, but past 1/2 track it's a big fat dog comparably. (Think F4 - a brick with a big enough engine will fly!
