    Even if your in the snow ❄️ belt, kissing cousins to Canada(I’m sorry if your are), fwd is better with 2 front snow ❄️ tires, not four like Awd that you need.

    I know this is supposed to be a "High Level" explanation of each drivetrain but AWD can be rear biased as well as front biased. Not all AWD systems work the same. Rally AWD systems are better than generic "Just to say it has AWD" AWD systems and they all perform very differently. I know as a fact that Evo AWD can oversteer instead of understeer in a turn making the argument in this video about AWD having problems from both drivetrains combined moot. The center differential has been the game changer. You can now do RWD drifts in your AWD car. Might be smokier though because you're smoking 4 tires instead of just 2.

      @@mikeb9569 actually, it might be able to do so based on how the Evo's AWD system works. The SAWC can slow down the front inside tire and speed up the rear and front outside tires causing a rotation that would not be typical of the CV joint range of motion on an Evo. Thus allowing greater turn in than it should be able to have. Nissan's ATTESSA AWD system is even better than that. So it's highly likely it can. If you try that in an older Evo though, it might not be possible, no.

      That’s not really how that works .. the car is still making the same output it’s just being delivered differently you don’t loose power because it’s AWD it just gets split so a percentage of the power is going to the rear and the other portion of that power and torque is being sent to the front but it doesn’t matter what drivetrain your car uses it’s going to have a difference in power from crank and power to the wheels as with all drivetrains there is a drop in power due to the efficiency of the drivetrain

      @@MissingLinkGTRS No it really does drop your power alot compared to RWD, a Jeep Trackhawk makes 100 less wheel Horsepower than a Hellcat because it uses its power to make all four wheels turn, More wheels to turn mean there are more moving parts needed to move and that saps power. And it's not that the power being "delivered differently" either, that power you use to move the extra two wheels in front won't translate to the road your on, it's whatever that's left that eventually gets on the road.
      Selecting what drivetrain is you use is important for dragracing because of this reason, if you want a pure dig monster AWD is more practical but RWD is far superior if the car can break traction properly, and on a strip RWD all day, there is a reason why the Nissan GTRs that can manage low 6s are all RWD.

    FWD is not good for snow in terms of traction. Having a light car with winter tires is good in the snow, but FWD does not have more traction, it has less. When you accelerate all the weight goes to the back, so your front wheels break traction more easily. It just understeers when you break traction instead of oversteering. I'd rather have a lighter RWD car in the snow then a heavier FWD car. But 4WD/AWD is way better than both

      You can also force a FWD to oversteer as well. It's a little harder to do, but not impossible. It won't ever DejaVu a corner per sey, but it's enough to correct in to a tight corner.

    Rear-Wheel-Drive=power from rear wheels. Front-Wheel-Drive=power from front wheels. All-Wheel-Drive=Front-Wheel-Drive+Rear-Wheel-Drive added with zero modification to the drivetrain configuration. Four by Four (4x4) is a Rear-Wheel-Drive vehicle modified so that the drive wheel also drive the front wheels. This is if I'm correct, what is so hard with jusst saying this?

    Gonna have to call you out on this, first up LMP1 cars are not fully AWD. They are more like 4WD because its mainly the rear wheels are powered unless they use the hybrid boost which powers the front wheels but only for a few seconds coming outta corners. Secondly, LMP1 cars are dead and now in the WEC we have the hypercar category. It pays to do research before putting info into a video

    I could be wrong but pls feel free to correct me I think theres a awd system that reduces the the power to the front wheels sometimes shutting it 100% off to reduce understeer and turning it back on to 50/50 to exit the corner I've read this somewhere but I cant find it maybe its not really a thing just an idea or a prototype

    IMHO, mid-engine RWD is best because no torque steer is super-efficient and dank nooners. also, the sound and feel are like no other. not to mention doing Initial D reenactments. (I speak of drifting, for those who haven't watched Initial D)

    Front-Wheel-Drive may be easier and cheaper to build, but they don't last as long under continued regular use over a long period of time. And yes, I now a few people dispute this claim. But please. How many vehicles are out there now that are of your particular vehicle? A Front-Wheel Drive vehicle in MOST cases will not last as long. And this is because they are built with a weakened structure in it's design. The Front of the car has too many parts in one place and has all of the vibration of all of the moving parts and the vibration of actual movement on just on part of the vehicle. The structural problem is from the fact that the drive wheels aren't on a solid frame like they are on a Rear-Wheel-Drive vehicle. And that leads to added wear over a shorter period of time.
