check the new post today about driving techniques by tiff (in the driving techniques forum) and you will see why you will not miss rwd or fwd and instead love awd. posted by "thechoc"

I drag more than auto cross... mainly because mustangs... even saleens dont handle worth a #%#% and you guys know it. My latest car that I sold was an 03 cobra running over 700 to the wheels but it was liek driving on ice... car wouldnt stay straight even on bfg's. Is awd drive going to mae THE difference in getting usable ho to the ground so that I can beat my old buddies with the huge hp an dno traction (think 1000 hp supras running 12's because they are spinning halfway down the track)....
what was done to you're cobra? A EVO will fill like a bicycle compared to a 700whp anything without 20K+ in it it won't be nearly as fast you're cobra was. You must have had no suspension work and small tires because both Terry, Broke, John H. (I could go on forever here) have run 10's on drag radials on stock or even 18'' CCW's...Terry ran 10.4@141mph on 18'' drag radials on pump. Good luck and get ready to spend a small fortune on the EVO because will feel like a dog. What times did you run with you're cobra since you like to drag race?
Or is all of this just a pretty story?

The Evo is going to be way more neutral in the corners. If you want to be a stop light king, then the Evo is your car. You might get your butt kicked in a 60 mph roll-on against a powerful RWD car though.

Only you will know if you miss RWD, we don't know. Is there anything else you need? A pillow, tissue, or a nice cup of "stop these stupid post"?

sorry alot of you guys thought it was a dumbquestion... htanks to some of you for making the ne gy feel welcome and others for making me feel like a tard.... as for my mods on the 03 cobra try a twin 57mm hp twin turbo kit at re;ativly low psi compared to what it was capable of.... so no it wasnt BS at all in face ask the guys at modular mustang racing... with more fuel it would have done 900 to the wheels.... this thread was about the experience of driving awd drive, no about well I wonder how fast his cobra was.... thanks for all the pertantnant info and for the rest of you... pick on someone who cares what you think... OH BTW... I am buying an evo so thanks for the info.... now you guys need to help me boost it from 450 crank at 100 octane to 450-500 at the wheels at 91.... so lets get started... cheaper mods first... no money for big turbo or stroker yet
