That is true from F1 down to the Vtec lump im putting in my civic.
After driving my uncles camaro in the states, the low to middle range usable power that was always available was bliss, even with a 6500 redline. 5.7 small block with EFI and a T-56 6 speed...
granted, on a track my views might change being able to use the higher RPM band more of the time
