Full independent rear suspensions have too many links that all have to move under acceleration before imparting any force to the car. Dump clutch: the rear tires spread to slight toe-out as the car squats deflecting the shocks & compressing the a-arm bushings, the 4 u-joints deflect and finally the machine begins to move. By that time, the Mustang with the primitive straight-axle in the next lane is already 10 ft in front and if the power is close to equal, he'll stay there. Successful drag-race Corvettes with the same problem used 9" Ford (or 12-bolt Chev) live axles. Now, put a curve at the end of the straight and the story is much different....you pick your game by your strengths.
