DanGB's Leon Sport TFSI 4WD Sleeper - The End
Hurdy:
So, you are in a prime position now to say whether or not you believe FWD or AWD is better on track?
Awesome vid too Dan. Liking the commitment on some of those turns. :driver:

AWD is better for big power, theres no doubting that. But you put a FWD 260Hp GTI against a 260Hp Golf R and the GTI will be better. The biggest improvement AWD will bring to a driver is it means they dont need to have any form of throttle control. Just use it as an on/off switch and let the haldex soak up the traction.
I personally like Haldex, and would love it for my next car, but i dont think its better for driving.

Great vid you seem to be backing off a lot though dude?

So to summarise... :wink:
Haldex is better for big bhp cars (anything over 260bhp?)
AWD means not having to use throttle control, which by implication means that you need to adjust throttle in a fwd car, ergo a fwd car is less stable.
A FWD Golf GTI would be faster than a 4WD Golf R with the same power.......in the dry :wink:
I'm sold on 4WD already Sy. :innocent:
