Re: always wondered of awd.

hmmm, thats a good one. i never thought about that, but it would seem that the back end would kick out because of the force.

Re: always wondered of awd.

well if if the car was moving at say 60 when the cop tried the pitt manuver or whatever they call it on it.. then i would think if its not pegged or anything it would all be about the same.. but i would imagine it would be somewhat easier to pull out of it with a fwd or awd then rwd since with the fwd/awd you got power to the front wheels to pull you straight again maybe... hmm im not sure but now im interested...

Re: always wondered of awd.

I understand it to be called the PIT maneuver.

Precision
Immobilization
Technique
