Are you able to drop pedal to the floor on a rolling start and not light the rears up?
Correct, I can roll and stomp on it and its nothing but pure acceleration. Almost zero wheelspin. They are pretty sticky tires. The only way I can get my Z to break them lose is to mash it and clutch it and that doesnt last all that long.

I had a set of Yoko's on it before and it would lite them up under 1/2-3/4 throttle...
