^^ I recon you would have to be a damn good driver to actually feel the difference. And I don't think a TC3 vs TC5 is a good comparison, they are fairly different cars.
There are dozens of other factors that have a bigger impact on handling than belt vs shaft. The belt will stretch for minute fractions of a second, measured in 1000's of millimetres before retracting, versus the minimal mass of the drive shaft taking minute grams of additional force to get rotating. Some of you must have god-like reflexes to notice that!
To answer your question, in my limited experience, GOOD prop driver cars NEVER get BAD torque steer.
