There really is no skill required, if you can hold the steering wheel straight and your right foot works you can take an automatic down the strip.
The only "driver mod" that could possibly make a difference is how much they weigh, let a 110lb teenager take your car down the strip for a new record lol

I'm always the first mention the fact that auto cars require no skill to drive aside from perhaps some throttle feathering, but regardless the launch matters. Whether thats attributed to the surface, level of prep, or launch RPM.
So you can say that but there's a reason gt500s will run 10.6s to 11.6s on prepped drag strips. The launch and prep of the car prior has an effect.
