Many wheel manufacturers like Zipp use radial lacing for the nds on rear road wheels, because there is a lot of dish, so the right flange is close to the plane of the rim and most of the torque is transferred to the rim on that side. It is not desirable on track hubs, where the flanges are equidistant, and the left side can contribute significantly to torque transfer.
