Also, it's at the track.. ET is the only thing that matters. He won on the 2nd pass with a 2.2 60'.. that's fucking insane.. against a freaking GT3.. you know.. the car that has a 7:40 on the Ring.

yeah, they all suck and don't know how to drive then. 
if you are driving a 700hp car ANYWHERE, you have to be able to feel for traction and feel how much you got and massage the throttle thereof - if you start losing grip you feather the throttle to get off - not stay on it and go sideways.
look, I'm not a pro driver or anything but I've driven my fair share of fast cars and done hundreds of passes down the 1/4 mile in my 500hp Supra back in the day. the first times I tried it, I had some trouble launching but I always let off when I was losing grip. common sense. I never wiped out or went sideways. those people need more experience to be driving a 700hp car at a track.
I'll give him a pass on the reaction time.

I should have known that you would have known that. Got a dunce cap lying around? 
ALTHOUGH, it is not uncommon for a (much) higher hp car to overcome a quicker-off-the-line car and beat it at the end.........
here is me racing one of those darty old Mazda's at NOPI Drag Wars '98 - hope you can get to the link - it's public so you should be able to -

not watching the video, just looking at the argument. Srika, you gotta learn to drive a 700hp car and the only way to learn is to track/drag it. Be happy that he isnt trying to learn how to push the car on public roads

All that money in the engine and he could buy some drag radials. 
Or run launch control.
Or have boost by gear.
Or fucking pedal it.
