A fairly subdued hard acceleration can still beat an FR-S off the line - the question is - would you do that, or would you purposely do a "minivan launch"?
Hard acceleration might be illegal if you break traction. Habitual hard acceleration will also accelerate wear and tear and reduce mpg on you car.
It is immature to consider who or what is in the lane next to you. Just enjoy your car.
