  • Rwd cars more likely to slip?

    Are Rear wheel drive cars like ours more likely to slip? I have this 1990 front wheel drive van that has never slipped as easily as my fbird.

    yes. The bulk of the weight isn't over the drive wheels.

        How does power have anything to do with slippage?

          Don't you think it's easier for an 800 hp car to spin the wheels than it is for a 150 hp car?

              Ah I see what he means. I thought he was talking about poor traction in rain and snow or something. I'm stupid, sorry for that.
