For launches, AWD is superior to anything. :bowdown:

But in a RWD platform, under proper weight conditions, it can be extremely hard to break traction as well. I have a single passanger side airbag torque arm setup, and with a 4300RPM launch (shy of my torque peak by 450RPM), I keep traction - mind you, at 4300RPM I'm making between 435-455 ft/lbs depending on the air and how many passes I've already made. I run a 28.5/10 inch tire - which doesn't hurt either.

Of course, I have everything but the kitchen sink in the trunk, lol. Battery, coolant res, fuel cell..... case of Corona and 1 lime.
