Wow. Don't confuse torque with power, they're directly related but totally different and can't be used like this.
If you go back to the fundamentals, force=mass*acceleration, torque is a twisting force. It can be directly calculated to force by the wheel/tire radius, therefore it is the property that defines acceleration.
