Ok...I'd rather have oversteer then understeer. AT least you can control the rearend whipping out on ya some amount. As in fwd with understeer you push in corners...

that is why we put in smaller front sway bars and HUGE rear sway bars. Gives us oversteer.

he runs 9's on slicks at the strip...not possible on the street.

here is the video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0LqMn...did%3D41773411

thats detuned to 630whp as well

ok... then why the hell would you say he WOULD run 11's at the strip when he has already run 9's

also... your 7 car head start.... looked like an awesome 1 and a 1/2... and your 9 car win... looks like an awesome 2 car win.... sohis 2,600 lbs 650WHP car beat a bone stock WRX.... want a cookie?lol

yes....throttle control ftw lol. I'm sure he can still run 11's with drag radials. he beat an sti by 9 cars and gave it a 7 car head start...and he was on street tires

also... this uber vid of a TV means nothing.... this looks like a lightly blown civic taking on a bone stock WRX to me... do you even know what 650WHP going to theSTOCK frontrubbers looks like?

seriously... you wreak of BS... take a shower or something

where did this take place? most likely in a wet dream. Second, by the time that race ended (if its true) his front rim would be touching the pavement.

But youll never be able to pull through a turn as well as a RWD car, think of it this way. A tire can only give so much traction at one time, when your accelerating with your front wheels and turning, it gives up a portion of all its possible traction to each, as for a RWD car the front tires turn, and the rear tires power.
