You always see 400 bhp RSTs putting in 14 sec quarter mile times when a RWD car would be in the 12s.

If you want to go FWD surely you would be better of working on the handling, as shown by the 1400cc fezza in PF track challenge.
Good point, when a 90bhp fwd festa can beat a 400+bhp 4x4 cossie round track you got to think why are you bothering and what have you built the car for? Is it just bragging rights as I think that is what most motors end up as, whats your aim? Top speed, circuit fun, wasting money?
