do you think that 275ish pounds of unsprung weight is really going to aid traction when theres 2400+ pounds being sent to the back of the car and away from the front wheels? there might be a little weight over the driven wheels but you dont see the front squat down when a fwd car launches do you? always, always the back.
i mean if FWD cars were superior they would probably use that
obvious advantage in weight distribution for Topfuel/funnycars, Lemans, nascar right? i cant remember the last time i saw a 7500hp+ fwd topfuel car break the 4's. i wonder why that is?
for the record nascar sucks.
