I also think that nic lets the car spin a lot longer in gear than BigRon does looking back at the video's. BigRon seems to change early and let the car pull through the gear whereas Nic's style is to leave it revving on the limiter.

The difference is the surface and the tyres and possibly having geometry set up better than guess work.
