Many factors come into play, AWD drag is still a big deal and these cars typically do not do as well on the top end, but down low they can play all day, 0-30 and 0-60 as fast as the blink of an eye or as fast as the guy can shift from 1-2.
Torque is acceleration though, if he's really pulling only 380 torque, you probably have an acceleration advantage, although slight enough that it's anyone's game.

Surprisingly these cars make low tq. Should be around 400 if anything. We’ll see today after he’s done tuning
