There's a difference between skimping on gadgets to save weight for performance, and putting the power down through the proper drive wheels. 270hp and FWD... You cant honestly say this is a good combonation. Every time you give it full power its just going to light up the tires - whats the fun in that? And the torque steer you'll get... blegh.
Don't both of you guys race FWD?
never said it was ideal. 140hp w/ r-comps is much more manageable than 270 on all-seasons anyway.
