The fact that it's shitty for handbrake turns is a quirk due to cost restraints of consumer semi-econo AWDs . Rally cars disengage the rear halfshaft when the handbrake is pulled.
>>5695474 It isn't, no but firstly consider that fuel here is ~35% more expensive than in the US. Secondly consider that you're essentially lugging around a drivetrain that is only marginally better than FWD in specific instances (sand drifting, mud drifting, grass drifting).
It's not much of a difference sure, but you're still wasting money. |
