rofl at all the people thinking it's rwd. not sure awd is giving much advantage there though as during the time it is most needed the front tyres are hanging in the air
lol another person with no clue. This car IS an ALL WHEEL DRIVE Subaru drag car. It still uses the Subaru impreza auto and AWD setup, albeit with upgraded rear diff so it doesn't explode with the huge whp it has.
As explained by me countless times now, when doing the burnout to warm the tyres, it is switched to RWD - but ONLY FOR BURNOUTS.
IT IS SWITCHED BACK TO AWD BEFORE STAGING AND RACING.
The reason the front tyres lift off the ground is because the torque split is rear biased, as well as the way the suspension is set up for drag racing, as well as the huge whp it has naturally shifting weight to the rear of the vehicle.
holy shit really.......if so then i guess the smoke from the front tires is invisible beacuse i could have sworn he put the line lock on for the frnt wheels.....soo i still dont see how its AWD
It most definately was AWD when this record was set.
It runs the standard subaru front diff with PPG LSD and STi front axels, and Ford 9" rear diff with Harrop centre and Mosser rear axles.
The reason most get confused, is because TRP would switch to RWD for the burnout and then back to AWD for the run. Watch the video closely and you can see all four tyres spin off the line.
It's AWD u fucking idiots.

thats not awd and if it is the Differential torque is set all the way to the back of the car.
Thing pulls the front tires off the ground. NOT AWD.

its AWD... the front and rear tires are the same size and you can see the front right rotate as it jumps off the ground.
