Front wheel drive and All wheel drive = two different worlds

 

not entirely......Especially when correcting for oversteer/understeer. They are somewhat close. Example, alex crashed into a curb because of some moped because he countersteered. This on an AWD and FF car is bad. Countersteer must be kept to a minimum. Throttle control is where it is at. The reason is, with our cars when you push the gas the car goes where you point the wheel. and wips the rest of the car around damn near uncontrolably.. I showed alex exactly what i ment a fiew times on the lake bed. When turning into a corner, i would turn in, and let the rear slide. Now at that point i would damn near make the wheels point forward. Not counter steer, then I used the throttle to turn the car from there. Its all about weight transition/throttle control. DONT MESS WITH ME I OWN THE DRIFT BIBLE!!! plus i drive crazy allot. Ask alex about that corner on Frank Senatra Street where he thought i was going to loose it but i kept the car on the line.


Think of it this way, bolth awd and FWD cars do compete in rally all of the time. Because they handle the dirt somewhat the same. (SOMEWHAT) but its close enough to save someone's life i am telling you.

 

I drove a Jeep all of the time back home off road, and FR is a bit close as far as control as the jeep was in 4wd mode.

 

Haha, check this out. They make Recaro baby seats for the evo. http://www.modacar.com/products/Mitsubishi/Evo/RECARO/

 

now you can autocrosse and or rally with a kid in the car with you... heh

yah man!! We have a meet on the tursday of the days your here ( i think its the 5th) Which hotel are you staying at, that way directions will be easer. I havent hd any problems in the hotels. I really havent heard any problems ither. Most of the people in these hotels wont mess with your car because they are usually older.

 

We meet Thursday nights (Aug 5) at the In N Out on Sahara west of the 15. Let us know what hotel you are staying at and we will give you better directions. I haven't heard of any evos being vandalized in parking lots.

 

I'll be staying at Venician guys. Thanks for the warm welcome.
