Build and Cam the engine for those modes of operation. Drives well is a subjective thing.

This is what I’d do too.
Usually I go for a long broad torque curve but that’s because it usually suits the engines power band with a Pontiac even in drag racing.
But occasionally a perky HP engine is what’s needed for certain applications say a light weight speed boat that spends a lot of its time at max rpm and HP
