there's a little more to launching awd than that, more parts to break, and still inferior in extremely high horsepower cars... but yeah, it's pretty cool

^+1 Oh hell yeah but I'm just saying from a basic view point. I don't know though, take a good AWD car and a FWD its not hard to choose. Personally RWD is awesome but I'm broke so it don't matter Guess I'm stuck with FWD.
