First of all a awd car is tuff to launch but if you drive one all the time it should not be a problem. Any car is hard to figure out but once you do its not a big deal. Second, Justins car is setup for roll races and if java cant dig then so is his car "technically". A rematch is definately needed but I think Justin will win from a roll. If java would dig race he would have a way better chance of winning if he launches it. We'll see on Friday.
Yes it would be a good race for the rx7 from a dig but Java wont run. He needs a clutch.

Do some rolls and some digs. Then everyones happy and you have different measurments of the cars.

Launching a awd car is not any easier or harder that a rwd or fwd.
The difference is that a awd can hook if launched properly with out the need of a drag radial or slick.

wow some one finally with an AWD car said this ... i would think its easier to launch a 400 awhp compared to a 400 fwd hp car just for the fact of all of the spinning of the FWD car
