<VV> drive wheels

[J R Read_HML]

Dave,

I HAVE to disagree with that one - even though I've not really been paying a 
lot of attention to the conversation.

You can steer a vair with the throttle on ice once you have the rear hanging 
out.  That is what the FUN part of ice racing is all about!  Of course, the 
hardest thing you are likely to hit is a frozen orange cone - not ice cream.

'66 beater Coupe - "icemobile" 4/140

STRAIGHT forward also applies to a rear engine RWD car in slippery /
snowy conditions.  Been there done that.

For performance, give me RWD.  For snow and ice, give me FWD.  I know
the limitations of both and will compensate accordingly.
