He said, on top of that, that he wouldn't race a muscle car anyways because RWD often causes the tail to almost hit him. Something like that.

My question is, what is the remedy for the tires skidding for the first few seconds of the race and how to control a fish tail.

Thanks for atleast reading my comment.

My experience with EVO guys are some know what they are talking about and most are just completely stupid. and honestly he's starting to sound like the later half. Launching an AWD car is easier then launching a RWD one. He'll get better 60's but crappier top end then a RWD car that is comparable.

Also most EVO guys that I've met don't know how to drive. That's why they got an AWD car. but I'm not saying all EVO guys are like that. so if anyone drives an EVO here sorry.
