AWD is only going to help you launch hard if you are willing to rev the motor up to a very high rpm and slip the clutch at wide open throttle (can you say 'abusive')

if your car is automatic (i think it is?) will the torque converter stall at a high enough RPM so you are in the meat of the powerband? if not you will bog off the line

Really? I never noticed a bogging in the Focus when I took it to Cayuga (Now mind you this was with the FocusSport 91 reflash) the car just pulled after chirping the rubber (Nokian WR AS)
