I don't want your opinion or what you have witnessed, I want cold hard facts. Equations, diagrams, 3D models... Whatever it takes to simply explain why RWD is ALWAYS better.

It’s simple physics all things being equal it’s much more difficult to have only one set of wheels doing the steering and the accelerating. By having the front wheels do the steering, and the rear wheels driving the car forword, you get a better-balanced vehicle.
Any driving instructor will tell you this and every book on performance driving will say RWD is better than FWD. You only have a few square inches where the rubber meets the road separating the jobs of steering and the accelerating is much better than having only 2 of your contact pads do all the work while the other two very little.
O and don’t get me wrong I do like your little computer driving games I played GT (4??IDK) for the first time on the first 86 trip. It was fun and they gave me a copy of the game for having the fastest time. Maybe being a performance driving instructor for the past 5 years helped or owning and driving a 850hp RR car IDK I’m not that good of a drive myself.
Thanks for not jump to conclusions about me being a complete idiot.
Now why don’t you explain how you think FWD and RWD are equal in terms of performance driving?
I don't want your opinion or what you have witnessed, I want cold hard facts. Equations, diagrams, 3D models...LOL
