Why does it seem most of the wheelies come from launching off the footbrake and not the transbrake?

Idk if it is because of class racing, or if it just works out better for their setup, but the lower launch RPM, coupled with a fairly flash RPM, will help jerk the front end up easier. Think about it.... Footbrake to 3k, flash to 6k. Vs brake at 4500 and flash to 6k on the launch. There's not as much "snap" that way. Even with the sudden shock on the driveline from being "dropped" in to gear.
