Nice video Ronald. That's what I thought was going to happen. It's all about traction.

BLK 1 :buhbye:

Enjoy your posts. Keep up the good work.

As to Corvette 4WD, Porsche has disproportionate weight distribution over the rear wheels which helps in the quarter mile, but not so much in road course track times with less-than accomplished pilots at the wheel. Also don't see too many (any?) 4WD applications in ALMS, DTM, etc. I don't think Porsche goes 4WD at ALMS events. Tadge Juechter (and others) confirm lots of frictional losses in 4WD drivetrain applications as well. 4WD good for inclement weather in street car applications, including those vehicles like the 911 that demonstrate handling vices on road courses resulting from rear weight bias. Otherwise give me a 4WD SUV for lousy weather and leave my rear wheel drive Corvette as she is.
