Whats better..... 4WD or 2WD (RWD or FWD)

A friend of mine used to drive a TVR Griffith 500 - the look on his face after a journey said it all to me - he looked knackered due to having to concentrate so much to keep the thing on the road - plus the burnt left hand from the rather hot gear knob

In Darg car terms Look at every top running car, 99% of there are RWD.

Must tell us some thing.

I have owned both an R32 GTS-t and R32 GTR.(both together for a few months) and I must admit, I much prefer the handling of the GTR as it is far more stable through the corners. The gtst did take a lot more effort to drive as it was very tail happy and needed alot more concentration, especially in the wet.

I know the GTR isnt permanent 4WD but when it kicks in you are gratefull for it. On the "odd" occasion that the back has stepped out I have no worries about it I just keep my foot in and it pulls itself out of it quite nicely. The GTS-t was a whole nother story though.

Never having driven a "proper" 4WD i can't comment on that but as said before I would say it depends on what you want the car to do.

I had an MY99 Scooby AWD - I found that if you tried to steer and accelerate at the same time - it was a bad idea, i.e. you'd understeer bigtime - However with the skyline, to boot it whilst taking a junction would be a big no no ...
