I might agree that maximum acceleration in any gear would occur at the
maximum engine torque in that gear, the fact in itself is most unhelpful
in determining 0 to 60mph times.

And in the original discussion, 0-60 times weren't mentioned. Just the
point in an engine's output where the best acceleration occurred. Which of
course is at maximum torque, not maximum BHP.

Actual 0-60 times depends on so much more.
