Hey guys,
As per the topic above, does anybody know how the AWD on the GT4 works? The reason why i am asking is that i always thought it was 50:50. The car does not spin on tarmac no matter what you do to it. But on gravel or when the road is wet, the car can spin unbelievably and it seems that most of the power is on rear wheels as the tail of the car travels on either side depending on the direction of the front wheels. The car never gets out of control though  (like when you overspin a rear drive car)Any further info on this would be helpful Thanks This post has been edited by neoklis: Mar 16, 2004 - 5:35 AM |

if the wieght distribution was 50:50 then you wouldn't be feeling it as much, but the engine is mounted directly above the front axles. giving it more of a 60ish:40ish distribution.

I was just worried if there is a problem somewhere and the car behaves like that. Posts in this topic
