Nissan 370Z Forum - View Single Post - more torque vs. less/dry sump oil system vs. reg. oil system?

I was curious to know why american sports car tend to have more torque compared to euro sports cars (Ferrari, lambo etc)? Is there any advantage or disadvantages? I would think having more torque would be an advantage.

Also, is there a difference when a sports car uses a dry sump oil system compared to a regular oil system?

Just curious to know.
