Would be interesting in theory to know what the reaction times were, though I had a cousin who just got back from Japan who sadly confirmed the lack of strips there.

What's up with the burnout at the beginning? Why would they both covert to RWD for drag racing?

I wondered the same thing, but notice the lack of spin at launch. Perhaps they adjusted the 4wheel distribution to 100% rear for burnout, then back to 50/50 for launch?
