Most people don't have slicks on this car, and the powerband makes it so you will most likely have spin to stay in the powerband. Also tends to be easier on the driveline on most average summer tires. You will either spin or bog 9 times out of ten with this car it seems.

Idk about your muscle cars.... I have only had Gto, camaro, corvette etc.... I think what you consider a "brakestand" is a burnout. A lot of drag racers have line locks to lock the front wheels for their burnouts, and you couldn't stay in a waterbox without using brakes anyways. Well, most cars couldnt I guess. You'll always be creeping forward.
