Kinda funny to think that Steph Papadakis is famous for all his work on *very specifically* FWD cars, before starting a second career in a motosport form that is very specifically RWD.

Promods of any type seem dumb to me. They pour hundreds of thousands into a car that drives it’s self and can only go straight for just a few seconds.
It’s like saying you’re a professional bowler but you use a ramp and bumpers.

The body has the same effect as a wheelie bar on a RWD

It it looks like they’re using RWD with a super short drive shaft configuration, but just putting it up front.
This is absurdly dumb. I mean stability has got to be awful. All that weight in front of the front wheels creating a pendulum effect with very tiny rear wheels with low weight and grip to trying to keep it all in line… it’s kinda like when a tail dragger airplane ground loops….this is like trying to drag race with a Porsche 911 in reverse….

Chaotic neutral.
I saw a Dodge Neon with front draggies hit 155 in the quarter. Had a chute and everything… and street legal. Oh, I think he did it in either 7 something or 9? Huge difference I know, but it was a sub-10 quarter. What a spectacle.
Unrelated, but like the only “cool” personal anecdote I have: I beat a C6 that day with my Stinger by like a .2 seconds. He had a relatively bad start though. The Stinger is RWD, no LSD so launching it is trash, considering 1st gear needs to be shifted immediately upon launching from how short it is.

I guarantee I could lift the rear of that car with my pinky lol

Torque steer measured in right angles.

That’s hardly even fwd anymore, that’s a mid engine and transaxle setup mounted to the front of the car.

PFI knows what the hell they’re doing. Brent I think his name is, tuned Boosted Boiz Kyles hondas and taught him how to tune. He makes bullet proof 1000hp k24s regularly. I’m sure it’s happened but I’ve watched almost every quarter mile Kyle has done and I’ve only ever seen him snap axels, never ruined a motor

These cars are mid tires, instead of FWD.

of countries that don’t have many RWD options? lol
One of the pics is from Brazil, the are not many RWD options to mod down there

The car body and rear wheels are basically the wheelie bar for the front wheels and engine at this point.
