I agree 100%......I think sometimes torsion figures are used as phallic symbols.

IMHO a chassis's torsional number would make no difference in which brand of kit I bought.

I corner weighted 4 different brand kit cars on the weekend ,2 Cobra's, one coupe, one DRB GT40. I found that even though the torsional stiffness of each car was greatly different, all the cars responded very well to spring platform adjustments...meaning that all the chassis's where stiff enough that small changes in ride height moved weight around the vehicles. A sloppy chassis would take inches of adjustment where the DRB GT40 for example showed weight changes/transfer with 5mm of adjustment.

IMHO that means that chassis is torsionally stiff enough for the application of Fun sports car/ hobby race car.
It responds well to changes and really why would it need to be stiffer?
