You guys know how you put skinnies in the front of your rwd cars, so what do fwd cars do, put skinnies in the back and real wide tires up front?

 

yes.

they do.

 

you don't watch import drag racing????

 

Let me help you take that foot out of you mouth...

 

lol

 

Bwa ha ha ha ha!
Nice one, Ryde or Die.
Yes. Front wheel drive cars run slicks in the front, and skinny tires on the backs, something like 5.5 x 15's.
Looks funny as hell, but Race cars aren't meant to look the greatest, they're meant to race.

I hate FWD dragsters

 

dont be so close minded... ive seen some FWD's that would have you shitting bricks for days...

 

and I've seen a monkey hump a cat! What was the point of the above?
FWD cars for racing make very little sense.

FWD cars don't make as much sense physically for racing. When power is put to the front wheels, weight is transferred to the back of the car, reducing traction. RWD cars just have a better overall design for drag racing.

Tell that to the 8 second Neon and Honda engineers... Dont tell me, I dont own a front wheel drive car.

 

...hence the wheelie bar

 

Yes that is true the wheelie bar is used to push the back of the car up so that the weight is not transferred... Buddy do your research before blurting out random ideas... Though they are not incorrect, they are just incomplete thoughts.

 

you talkin to me?

 

no

 

Me, I think.
The wheelie bar does not prevent the car from transferring weight to the back, it prevents the front of the car from lifting and having to lift off the throttle.
On front wheel drive cars, wheelie bars are the only way to get serious traction.
Do your research before YOU blurt out an answer.
and that 8 second neon will lose to any 4. whatever RWD car.
Aswell, maybe you should use some of the faster times to represent a FWD race car, b/c FWD is faster than 8 seconds, but not even close to a maxed out RWD car.

Guy, I dont care about your opinion. If you want to argue call up someone with a FWD car that races. Also I dont care how fast the fastest anything is. I also dont care what you think. Leave it alone, your fighting for no reason. I could care less about the politics of drag racing. I dont drag race.

 

I made a comment about why front wheel drive cars make little sense as a drag car.
You made an incorrect comment about the purposes of a wheelie bar, then told me my comments were made from incomplete research. Now you're saying I started an argument?
Sounds to me like you don't know what you're talking about and realize it and are trying to back out.
You picked a fight with your comments:
dont be so close minded... ive seen some FWD's that would have you shitting bricks for days...
Buddy do your research before blurting out random ideas...

Don't make comments you can't back up and don't argue something you know nothing about.
