Less frictional loss theoretically lets it start going faster since it doesnt have to drive an extra set of wheels

Assuming both cars could hook equally (think drag slicks) the rwd would be faster the whole time. The awd wins the launch because it is using first gear whereas the rwd uses second since it will incinerate the tires if it used first.
