FWD vs RWD?

[aaronng]

How about the use of a belt system instead of a shaft??

Not reliable when used on a car engine that has reasonable torque. That's why only lower capacity older style cars had chain drives. All modern cars have driveshafts in order to operate reliably given the modest torque. Chains and belts don't withstand high torque.

I meant Subaru's are front biased and Evos too, heck all AWD's are. .

Veyron?

[deon]

Also why are Formula 1's RWD? Because RWD is the pinnicle of car performance, RWD's are superior to that of AWD's.

they're also governed by rules, which say they arent allowed to be awd. i believe the question was FWD vs RWD? and i think the clear winner is RWD i dont believe there is anything a current day rwd cant do that fwd can.
and i can't agree with your comment on a gtr, how about we hear about hwo they drive from somone who owns one?

ill disregard the ferrari part being a "super car" because they r slower than my rx7 in every single way.. including looks

lol i sense jealousy, a ferrari rips any rx7 for looks, other then if you drove a LM spec one around but i doubt you do, unless your rx7 is ridiculously modded i dont think it comes anywhere close to an f40/f50/enzo?

If that were true no manufacturer would produce a FWD vehicle.

WHatabout a drag cars super charger??? They are belt driven, and i bet none of our hondas even make enough power to turn those things

I've driven a GTR R33 for 6 months, and that is my conclusion, I don't care what you have to say, so let's leave it at that shall we???

Also you are right, this topic is about FWD and RWD so excuse my ignorance. RWD is a clear cut winner when compared to FWD.

i like the thrills of understeer.
thrilling stuff.

[rhk]

^ if you want to have good fun death oversteer, just lift off the throttle at high speed understeers ftw lol

imho:

fwd: hatches
rwd: most other things
