I used to hate on FWD cars since I have always owned a RWD car (mostly RX7s), but ever since I took my friends stock Integra TYPE R to the Track for some circuit racing...my hatred has died down. That and also the fastest cars in my local autox are mostly fwd....
But, I've got a wacky idea I might just have to explore once electric bikes become more common... AWD motorcycles using hub motors for power and traction control...
