Jus wanting to know what you think is more fun to drive

4WD are fun you dont get stuck in the mud (Hilux)
fast as lighting round corners and down the main straight (EVO's, subs an GTR's etc) but you never see them drift apart from the JUN evo V

RWD slideing everywhere around taupo also sum quick 1/4's. My Corolla rally styles :twisted: , Chaser, Supra, Silvia

FWD ??? my FX not much fun in that :( and all the dumb vtec's sum one tell me y u by a FWD coz I dont know Y I did now !! I know the some of them look all right but wheres the fun?

me RWD or 4WD me want to drift like that JUN evo its phat

Hey XSVTOY,

Gotta say I went with FWD too, U should come for a ride in my pulsar then you'll know what FWD fun is about... there is nothing quite like Wheel spinning past an Evo in 4th on the motorway *cough* or so I've been told :wink:

In saying that I'd also like to own a 4wd and Rwd too :)

RWD ! :D
Only 4WD I been driven is Hilux and Land Rover(Full time 4WD).
I always choose the Hilux to drive in a muddy place and just use the RWD,because it is more fun and it slide around on the mud until get stuck, then put it to 4WD :lol:
Land Rover no fun because it never get stuck and don't really slip at all. :? But is good when you don't wish to get stuck in the middle on no where (Jungle) 8O .

Only FWD is fun is a Mini! they handle damn well!

The feeling of getting your rwd so close the limit that its about to spin and then correct is a rather nice..yet scary feeling :)

Definately RWD for me. Just got to love the drift action :D

Now if only my EP82 was a RWD, then I'd be in business.
