TBH nobody cares about reaction speed when they going for a good time as it dont affect the time at all.
You see most the skylines etc waiting till the other car is near enough finished before even bothering to launch

Not really, but the swedish comentator says that the inlet have cracked so after the run the norwegian team will try to fix it at a nearby workshop. Seemed to run fine anyway
