GT-R is using an automated manual (different from automatic), which is pretty bad$ss!!! AWD > RWD, but I do like Toyota's stying a bit more...

96 Eclipse Spyder GSX (already turbo, AWD swap)
93 Eagle Summit AWD (4G63 turbo swaps)
It's a DCT. You don't *have* to shift gears. To me, that's an automatic.
And yes, AWD > RWD, but not all the time.

Roll racing doesn't count. Roll racing is for people who dont know how to put the power down to the tires from a stop lol. Anyone can roll race pretty much. Takes control or AWD to launch a car. Now if that MR2 had raced that or GTR from a dead stop... The outcome might have been different. Just my .02
Roll racing is becoming more and more prevalent. The airstrip events held across the country attest to that. Started off as guys highway racing, and progressed to roll-on events. There are some of us that like to top end our cars, and that can't be done from a dig. A race is a race is a race, whether from a dig or from 60mph, as both are experienced in the real world. And not everyone can roll race; just as racing from a dig, you either have to control or AWD. 900hp from a roll can break loose just as easily as 900hp from a dig.
