I feel like you'd get the most weirdos out of anybody.
Most people are cool until they start running out of women and resources.
The only time I think the front engine can beat, like, a mid-engine thing, I think, is if, like, the track has different elevations.
Like, Laguna Seca, I think, has, like, a huge downhill-uphill thing.
Yeah, I think... I mean, I'd imagine that's the only place it probably can make a difference.
Because, like, when you're coming...
what is it like man i think i saw a video on it one time and i didn't have the volume up because my kid was asleep but i'm pretty sure that's what they were talking about like uh what are you know on the side of the track they have like the like the stripes the red and white and sometimes they go over there you know sometimes yeah so if you're going off of one of those and you're also going downhill i'd imagine you'd want like a front
engine, I think you'd get the grip faster as you're coming down.
Whereas if the motor was in the back, I think you'd have to kind of catch your balance a little more than a front engine.
I could be wrong, though.
The more you get into cars, the more you get into physics and balance.
It starts off as like,
oh shit, like 340 horsepower and 400 pound feet of torque.
And then later on, you're just like, dude, that thing is so balanced.
