High kv low gearing VS Low kv high gearing

[Dragonfueled]

I get the low kv more effeicent thing but wouldn't the high kv low gearing have more torque? Given that torque or kt are supposed to go up with kv and still be geared low. Not saying it would be more efficient but I would think it would have more torque simply cause of it being able to use lower gearing and have the same speed.

Let's go to extremes. Let's take car a with a 9000 kv motor geared for 60 mph and same car with a 2000 kv motor geared for 60mph bolth using 2s lipos. In this case wouldn't the 9000 be more efficient? Or would they bolth work out the same? I figure the 9000 would love the low gearing.
