In your opinion, which is funner to drive?
A rear wheel drive car or an all-wheel-drive car and why?

"funner" is closer to being a word than "that was kinda to be an ass" is to being a sentence

Internet spelling/grammer nerds go home...

And r/w is more funner.

I noticed often times if a user has "SR20DET" in their name most of the time they don't have one.

*weirdstyles.net* · 03-07-2003, 08:31 PM

he he....

well, since the only time I ever drive both is in grand turismo 3, I would have to say rwd. Only because it seems easier to me to induce oversteer. Rather than the understeer effect I get with the awd Calsonic R34...which I still love.

But I love racing my s14mc...and my 180sx drifter, which I still cant handle...

andrave · 03-07-2003, 08:34 PM

depends. On dry roads, I chose RWD. but since I live in the snowbelt, and it rains a lot on curvy roads, I chose AWD for daily driver. RWD for sunny toy.

Stee Flo · 03-07-2003, 10:20 PM

I guess it would depend on your favorite driving style. If you like to drift, rwd all the way. For grip driving, both awd and rwd are good. Snow and dirt go to the awd. I cant decide

I would like a scooby to go along with my 240.

AmherstSR20DET · 03-07-2003, 10:42 PM

Gotta agree with andrave and Stee Flo. There are a couple elements to take into consideration: location and resulting weather and prefered driving style.

Having the privelage of owning a 240 and a scooby, I love them both. The scooby is great in the winter. I don't worry too much about traction, but when I want to have fun, its rather easy. And the 240 is great when the roads are clear.

Anyways, that's how I feel. I gotta get to bed. Gotta be up at 7... and on a Saturday too.

Keep in mind that this being a 240sx forum, you WILL get opinions biased towards RWD. . .

That said, I find RWD more enjoyable. I've driven 240s for three years now, and just love the way rwd corners. I've also driven my sister's WRX fairly often (often enough to have an opinion at least). Quite fun as well, definitely more more stable while accellerating in a turn, but I just don't enjoy the car quite as much.

if funner is not correct, then whats the correct word, "Funnier Drivetrain"

Anyways, I have only drive fwd and rwd car, imo rwd is funnier to drive.
