GS460 owners do not want to admit that GS350 AWD launched properly can run some good times. For drag racing its all about the launch, if you have a strong launch you can get great results. Traction is action!
To launch an AWD hard you have to load the convertor while on the brakes. Then just release the brakes and you should be able to chirp or spin all 4 wheels at the start.
This guy ran a 13.5 1/4 time

This other guy whos a member here btw with us ran a 14.1 on his modded GS460, mind you the non-US 460's are detuned and slower then US 460's. Also both cars are on the exact same drag strip, so both sea elevation is the same.

Not a stock 350 and the GCC 460 has a completely different engine, so not really applicable. pick on a real 460, one with good tires lol
With summer tires a stock fse 460 will run a 2.0 60ft as well, and will only gain on the 350 from there.
Don't know why the conversation even went to this, but the 350 will never be a better drag car than the 460, but that has nothing to do with OPs question. lets get back on track.

I also own an all-wheel drive 2006 GS3 and they weigh over 200 lb more than a rear wheel drive because the extra equipment that it takes to have an all-wheel drive so factor that in that's a lot of weight that's like a good size body laying in the trunk so to speak LOL. But during the rain and snow? Corners like she's on Rails
