Correct, an overall dyno graph that is flat as a pancake will provide an engine that has consistent pull everywhere. It makes it much easier to drive fast because it won't have any surges across the rpm band. Honestly if you are over 500 hp/tq you are going to have to modulate power out of corners if you are trying to go as fast as possible. You can road race a car with a very peaky power band and go fast but it takes a lot more skill to keep it near the limits without making a mistake.
Actually 734 HP and 759 TQ is the ideal set-up.
