1000 lb ft?? Hell yes I'm voting for this. More torque than a Veyron is okay in my books.

Steam has more torque than petrol and all available from 0 rpm

So... it's kind of like an electric motor in that regard? There's also the single speed transmission.

Similar deliverance of power but steam can be filled like petrol, no charging required.
