    Word. power:weight is a huge factor. Give a 200 whp 1900 lb car a three or four car jump when you make 400 whp and weigh 3800 lbs. You will be hard pressed to catch up. Everyone keeps forgetting about wheel spin in 2nd or 3rd gear as well for the "shitty" tires car. Fair is fair. Dig run with equal tires.

    Yep.

    And if you spin from the start, you are even MORE likely to spin in the subsequent gears as well.
