Umm no. Rhys Millen sells a kit to convert a evo to RWD, So im sure his car was RWD. And the limited slip diffs and transfer case are working so hard when hes doing that trying to split the power to any wheel that has traction, I hope he went home and changed all his fluids atleast

snow is fine, i do it all the time, but do NOT go lock to lock.

But on pavement, geezus im surprised he didnt breake something or everythign! the TC definately has to be toast, drain the fluid and watch it shimmer with metal shavings!
