That is very true. Torque that overcomes grip in any vehicle is not very useful. And, you're right, in a light weigh car it's easier to overcome available grip - especially at low speeds.

There's no such thing as too much power, only not enough control.

Control means setting up your suspension correctly, and proper management of your right foot.
