Hey guys,

As per the topic above, does anybody know how the AWD on the GT4 works? The reason why i am asking is that i always thought it was 50:50.
The car does not spin on tarmac no matter what you do to it. But on gravel or when the road is wet, the car can spin unbelievably and it seems that most of the power is on rear wheels as the tail of the car travels on either side depending on the direction of the front wheels. The car never gets out of control though biggrin.gif (like when you overspin a rear drive car)

Any further info on this would be helpful
Thanks

wow, that was the first site i came up with when i was finding info for the GT4 2 years ago. I never saw the articles though. Although i am not quite sure on how everything works, i can see now the technology put into the GT4.
Still though can get why the rear of the car spins more in gravel or wet road. Shouldnt the 50:50 and all the systems mentioned maintain the stability of the car in such cases. In any case I really have no problem with that. wink.gif I was just worried if there is a problem somewhere and the car behaves like that.
